Hardware Installation
Module Overview
The Services Module, an HP ProCurve zl module, is an x86 platform designed
to integrate network applications within the HP ProCurve switch architecture.
By integrating with HP ProCurve's Services library, these applications can
offer more value than stand-alone appliances. The module provides services
to download, install, and license customers’ own applications through the
network.
Hardware Installation
Module Overview
1
The module is managed through an easy to use Command Line Interface (CLI).
The module can be installed in any HP ProCurve zl switch (either the switch
series 5400zl or 8212zl). A maximum of four Services Modules can be installed
in the same chassis. See “Environmental Specifications” on page 1-5.
The Services Module requires switch software version K.13.51 or later to be
installed in the switch.
The following figure shows the front panel of the Services Module.

Installing the Module
Installation Precautions
■Static electricity can severely damage the electronic components on the
module. When handling and installing the module, follow these procedures to avoid damage from static electricity:
•Handle the module by its bulkhead or edges and avoid touching the
components and the circuitry on the board.
•When installing the module, equalize any static charge difference
between your body and the switch by wearing a grounding wrist
strap and attaching it to the switch’s metal body, or by frequently
touching the switch’s metal body.
■The module has “low-force”, high-performance connectors. High inser-
tion forces are not necessary to install the module, and should not be
used.
■Ensure the module is fully inserted. Press the module into the slot
until the bulkhead on the module contacts or is very close to contacting
the front face of the switch chassis.
■Once the module is fully inserted, screw in the two retaining screws to
secure the module in place.
■For safe operation, proper switch cooling, and reduction of electromag-
netic emissions, ensure that a slot cover is installed on any unused
module slot. For safety, no more than one slot should be uncovered at a
time when the switch is powered on.
■Check the temperature specifications for the module; different modules
have different temperature requirements.
To install the module into a switch, the switch can be powered on or off. The
following procedure assumes the switch is powered on.

Installation Procedure
NoteBefore installing the Services Module, confirm that the switch has the most
current version of module-compatible software installed. Otherwise the
switch will not recognize the Services Module. For directions on how to check
the switch software version, see “Initial Configuration” on page 2-3.
1.Use a Torx T-10 or flat-bladed screwdriver to unscrew the screws in the
cover plate over the slot where the module is to be installed. Remove the
cover, and store the cover plate for possible future use.

Installing the Module
The procedure to replace or remove a Services Module is described on page
C-5 in the Web version of this document at www. procurve.com/manuals.
Appendix C also describes the procedure to replace the module’s Hard Disk
Drive (HDD) and the Compact Flash (CF) card.
Verifying that the Module is Installed Correctly
When the module is installed, it undergoes a self test that takes a few seconds.
This happens both when the switch is powered on after installing the module,
and when the module is installed while the switch already has power. The
LEDs help determine if the module has passed the self test, as described in
the table below.

5400z1 or a 8212zl chassis. For the 5400zl chassis, the maximum
supported temperature is 50°C when there are no Service Modules
in the right side of the chassis, and 40°C if there are Service
Modules in the right hand side of the chassis. The 8212zl chassis
is always limited to 40°C.
Note that the 5406zl chassis only has three left hand slots. This
allows the chassis to be operated at up to 50°C with up to three
Service Modules installed. Installing a fourth Service Module
requires that one of the modules be installed in the right side of
the chassis thereby de-rating the chassis to 40°C.

Getting Started
When the Services Module is shipped, it includes the hardware along with the
HP ProCurve Service Operating System (OS). The primary Service OS resides
on a Hard Disk (HD). To recover and diagnose hard disk problems and to
reinstall the HD Service OS, a failsafe Service OS is provided on the Compact
Flash (CF). The CF Service OS is a backup of the HD Service OS. The Service
OS can only be updated from the CF Service OS and vice versa. In this
document, the HD Service OS is simply referred to as the Service OS.
Getting Started
2
The Services Module does not ship with any product software installed. When
the module is installed in a switch for the first time, the system boots directly
into the Service OS. From here, HP ProCurve certified product software can
be downloaded, installed, and activated on the module. Product software
includes both the application and the product OS.
Once a product has been activated, the system can boot directly into the
product OS by using the boot product CLI command. After this the system
will boot directly into the product OS whenever the module is brought up.
Once the module has booted into the product OS, it is completely controlled
through the product OS. The Service OS and the CF Service OS no longer
control it.

zlSM .book Page 2 Thursday, January 29, 2009 11:53 AM
Getting Started
The figure below shows where the three different operating systems reside on
the Services Module. Note that the Service OS and the product OS live in
independent partitions on the hard disk.
Figure 2-1. Module Operating Systems
CLI commands are available to boot the module from one OS to another. The
following examples show the CLI commands to switch between operating
systems. “:CF” means the module is booted to the CF service OS, “:HD” means
the module is booted to the Service OS, and “:PR” means the module is booted
to the product OS.
Service OS to product OS:
hostswitch(services-module-C:HD)# boot product
Service OS to CF Service OS:
hostswitch(services-module-C:HD)# boot cf_service
Product OS to Service OS:
hostswitch(services-module-C:PR)# boot service

Initial Configuration
The Command Line Interface (CLI) must be used to carry out the steps
required to configure the module.
The module CLI is accessed through the switch CLI, and is available in all three
OS environments: Service OS, CF Service OS, and product OS (limited
command set).
Updating Switch Software
Before configuring the Services Module, access the switch CLI to verify the
switch has the most current module-compatible software installed. Use the
following command to check the software version:
If a software update is needed, follow the instructions on page D-1 in the Web
version of this document at www. procurve.com/manuals.
When the switch has the correct software version installed, use the following
CLI command to check if the Services Module is installed:
hostswitch# show modules
The above command shows all the Services Modules installed in the switch,
and their slot numbers.
To get more detailed information about the Service Module status and any
installed application use the following command for a module in slot ‘C’:

Initial Configuration
An example output from this command looks as follows:
Updating Services Module Software
The Services Module maintains a repository of the software images that are
downloaded to it. The installation of software depends on the image type.
There are four image types:
■Service image
■CF Service image
■Product image
■Tools image
The Service, CF Service, and product images are containers for full OS
installations, and are referred to as OS images. These images are generally
large in size, typically greater than 200MB. The OS images don't change
frequently and are usually only used for recovery or major version updates or
to fix major OS problems.
Tools images, used to update the Service and CF tools, and to resolve minor
OS problems, are much smaller, usually 1-5MB. They change more frequently
and contain incremental updates.
There are two installation commands:
■Install
■Update
The install command is used for new installations of an OS image. Before a
new OS can be installed, the existing OS must be removed by using the
uninstall command. In addition, the product must also be uninstalled.

The update command is used to modify an existing installation, either an OS
or the Tools. The update is done “in-place” without requiring an uninstall of
the OS. The partition sizes of the new and current OS must match, otherwise
the update command will display an error and abort the process. Updating an
existing Service OS does not require the product to be removed first.
Service OS Installation
Periodically, Service OS updates are available from HP ProCurve. To check
the Service OS version installed on the Services Module, first boot the Service
OS, if it is not already booted. Then, access the module’s Service OS CLI:
hostswitch# services c 1
Then, use the following CLI command:
Getting Started
Initial Configuration
hostswitch(services-module-C:HD)# show version
This command will show the version number for both the Service OS and the
CF Service OS. It will also show the version number of the installed product
(if any). Here is an example output from this command:
