What I do is stand behind the rack and reboot the box in question. Watch
the neato green blinkly lights (the ones that blink once every five
seconds when a PM is running). During reboot, the light will go
blinkyblinkyblinkyblinky and then light solid. Aha... there's the
portmaster you're looking for.
You could also just use adhesive labels... they work too. =0
