Abstract: Systems, methods, and software for guiding electronic connections between nodes of a computer system are disclosed. A system includes a plurality of servers, each having a plurality of connection ports and a service processor in electronic communication with the connection ports. A plurality of selectively-operable visual indicators are included, each associated with one of the connection ports. One of the service processors controls operation of the visual indicators according to a sequence of electronic connections to be made between the connection ports. Computer usable program code accessible by one of the service processors may be included for selectively operating visual indicators associated with the connection ports according to the sequence of connections to be made between the servers.
