Locate the controller so that you can perform hardware maintenance or upgrades.

Before you begin
  • You have determined which controller requires maintenance.

  • (Optional) To help locate the controller in your data center, turn on the blue identify LED.

Steps
  1. Find the controller requiring maintenance in the data center.

    • Look for a lit blue identify LED on the front or rear of the controller.

      The front identify LED is behind the controller front bezel and might be difficult to see if the bezel is installed.
