To install the OS you can also use the ILO2 virtual CD-ROM.
The installation of the Ultrium 448 blade is correct, but be sure to power off the server before installing it, it's not hot-plug.

You can use the iLO virtual media to install operating system by using the optical drive of your computer.
2. For the tape drive to work properly. Power off the partner blade. Remove the tape drive. Reseat the partner blade. Install the tape drive. Switch on the partner blade. The tape drive should switch on & initialize. If all goes well, the LED will turn green.

Re: C-3000 Blade DVD, Blade Tape Drive
I cannot attach from OA and Insight Display since the bay is blank even though the drive is attached. Its marked with black circle. I cannot attach it to any blade servers. I have rebooted the enclosure and firmware are all up to date. The dvd does have power to it. Suspect Hardware issue
Ok as per the blade, one of of tech guy installed it while the blade on bay 5 was turned on which im not to sure since fault was escalated to me. Is there is effects?

Re: C-3000 Blade DVD, Blade Tape Drive
Regarding the Ultrium 448 blade, it's connected though a SAS controller, which connects to the blade motherboard though the backplane, but it's not hot-plug. Try to power cycle the blade and see if when it boots, you see a message of the LSI Logic controller.

Re: C-3000 Blade DVD, Blade Tape Drive
Apology i was not in the country.
The DVD drive started to work which was left for a while and the Tape Drive i had replaced the whole blade without Tape Drive.
Appreciate the support you have been providing.
