Identifying a part
Learn how to identify the system or enclosure that contains a failing part, the location code and light-emitting diode (LED) status for a part, and how to activate and deactivate the identify part LED.
Note: If you are using PowerKVM, you must use the ASMI procedures to identify
a part or enclosure.
