Installing and removing blade servers
Your BladeCenter unit supports up to 14 high-performance blade servers. Each
blade server is an enclosure that contains microprocessors, memory, a control chip
set, an I/O bus, Ethernet controllers, hard disk drives, and customer interface
controls, and connectors for expansion options. The blade server receives its
power, network connection, and I/O devices (CD-ROM and diskette drives,
keyboard, mouse, and video ports, USB port, remote monitoring port) from the
BladeCenter unit, reducing the server physical size and reducing the number of
cables needed.
