Buttons
The Reset button is recessed in the front panel of the server. You can press the button with the tip of a paper clip or a similar item.
Hold the button down for five seconds, and then release it to restart the server if other methods of restarting do not work.
The locator function for an individual server may get turned on or off by pressing the locator button/LED.
The power button allows you to manually take a server temporarily out of service but leave it in a state where it can be restarted
quickly. If the desired power state for a service profile associated with a blade server is set to "off," using the power button or Cisco
UCS Manager to reset the server will cause the desired power state of the server to become out of sync with the actual power state
and the server may unexpectedly shut down at a later time. To safely reboot a server from a power-down state, use the Boot Server
action in Cisco UCS Manager.
Local Console Connector
The local console connector allows a direct connection to a blade server to allow operating system installation and other management
tasks to be done directly rather than remotely. The port uses the KVM dongle cable that provides a connection into a Cisco UCS
blade server; it has a DB9 serial connector, a VGA connector for a monitor, and dual USB ports for a keyboard and mouse. With this
cable, you can create a direct connection to the operating system and the BIOS running on a blade server. A KVM cable ships standard
with each blade chassis accessory kit.
