Blade server preparation
Before you insert the switch module in the blade server chassis, meet the following
conditions:
• The blade server is powered up.
• The blade server chassis meets all its specic power requirements.
• The I/O module bay C1 or C2 is empty and ready to receive the switch module.
• If you are replacing an existing switch module, to maintain the proper cooling level in the
chassis, insert the replacement switch module within one minute.
Switch module installation
Insert the switch modules in the blade server chassis slots and check that the modules are
functioning properly.
