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 that you switch the keyboard,
video, and mouse to the blade server. All subsequent switching takes place in
the normal KVM switching time frame (up to 20 seconds).
Media-tray select button: Press this button to associate the shared BladeCenter
unit media tray (removable-media drives) with the blade server. The LED on the
button flashes while the request is being processed and then is lit when the
ownership of the media tray has been transferred to the blade server. It can take
approximately 20 seconds for the operating system in the blade server to recognize
the media tray.
If there is no response when you press the media-tray select button, you can use
the Advanced-Management-Module Web interface to determine whether local
control has been disabled on the blade server.
Note: The operating system in the blade server must provide USB support for the
blade server to recognize and use the removable-media drives.
