The two system identification buttons on the front and back panels can be used to locate a particular system within a rack. When one of these buttons is
pushed or the systems management software is used to identify the system, the blue system status indicators on the front and back of the system blink. (To
stop the indicator from blinking, press one of the identification buttons a second time, or use the systems management software.)
