NovaScale Blade 2320 Installation and User’s Guide 9
Although the keyboard that is attached to the NovaScale Blade Chassis might be a PS/2
style keyboard, internal communication with it is through the USB. The operating system
in the blade server must provide USB support for the blade server to recognize and use the
keyboard and mouse. When you are not running an operating system that has USB device
drivers, such as in the following situations, the keyboard responds very slowly:
•
Running the blade server integrated diagnostics
•
Running a BIOS update diskette on a blade server
•
Updating the diagnostics on a blade server
•
Running the Broadcom firmware CD for a blade server
If there is no response when you press the keyboard/video/mouse select button, you can
use the management-module Web interface to determine whether local control has been
disabled on the blade server.
If you install Microsoft Windows Server 2003* on the blade server while it is not the
current owner of the keyboard, video, and mouse, a delay of up to 1 minute occurs the first
time you switch the keyboard, video, and mouse to the blade server. During this one-time-
only delay, the blade server device manager enumerates the keyboard, video, and mouse
and loads the device drivers. All subsequent switching takes place in the normal
keyboard-video-mouse switching time frame (up to 20 seconds).
Media Tray select button: Press this button to associate the shared removable-media
drives and USB ports with the blade server. The LED on the button flashes while the

and USB ports has been transferred to the blade server. It can take approximately 20
seconds for the operating system in the blade server to recognize the removable-media
drives and USB ports.

Chassis uses USB for internal communication with these devices. If there is no response
when you press the media tray select button, you can use the management-module Web
interface to determine whether local control has been disabled on the blade server.
Activity LED: When this green LED is lit, it indicates that there is activity on the hard
disk drive, flash drive, or network.

administrator to aid in visually locating the blade server. The location LED on the
NovaScale Blade Chassis will be lit also. The location LED can be turned off through the
management-module Web interface.
Information LED: When this amber LED is lit, it indicates that information about a
system error for the blade server has been placed in the system error log. The information
LED can be turned off through the management-module Web interface.
Power-on LED: This green LED indicates the power status of the blade server in the
following manner:
