If two or more server modules are installed in the chassis, press the KVM selection button on a
different server module.
NOTE: After pressing the KVM selection button, allow approximately two seconds for the KVM functions to
change to a different server module.
If the keyboard is connected to the back-panel KVM module and works with another server module,
the first server module may need to be reseated. See "Server Modules" on page 73. If reseating the
server module does not help, the server module may be faulty. See "Getting Help" on page 127.

Swap the keyboard with a known-working keyboard and repeat step 5 and step 6. If the keyboard does
not work with any server module, see "Getting Help" on page 127.
