Installing blade options
Before installing and initializing the blades, install any blade options,
such as an additional mezzanine card. For blade options installation
information, see the HP ProLiant BL460c G6 Server Blade User Guide
on the Documentation CD or on the HP website
(http://www.hp.com/go/bladesystem/documentation).

To connect the HP BladeSystem to a network, each enclosure must be
configured with network interconnect devices to manage signals between
the blades and the external network.
Two types of interconnect modules are available for HP BladeSystem
c-Class enclosures: Pass-thru modules and switch modules. For more
information about interconnect module options, see the HP website
(http://www.hp.com/go/bladesystem/interconnects).

IMPORTANT:
If your product is factory-integrated, the blades are pre-installed
in the enclosure.
CAUTION:
To prevent improper cooling and thermal damage, do not
operate the blade or the enclosure unless all hard drive and
device bays are populated with either a component or a blank.
