Abstract

A computer room management device communicates with a serviceable device via a computer room serviceability network (CRSN) that is distinct from other functional data networks utilized to accomplish computing tasks. The CRSN may be, for example, a Bluetooth connection that provides for the communication of serviceability instructions between devices within the computer room. The management device instructs the serviceable device to activate a location identifier proximately located to a service location. The management device provides a service interface that includes a representation of the activated location identifier along with instructions for providing service at the service location.
