Installing the uplink module

CAUTION: To avoid connectivity loss, do not remove switches already in operation.

CAUTION: For proper cooling, be sure every switch module bay and uplink module bay has either a blank or a module installed.

To install the component:

1. Remove the uplink module bay blank.
2. Prepare the uplink module for installation.

   

3. Install the uplink module.

   

4. Do one of the following:
   • If the switch module is already installed, verify the uplink module powers on and the uplink module health LED is green.
   • If the switch module is not installed, install the switch module before verifying LEDs.

   For more information, see "Switch information and guidelines."

5. After both components have been installed, verify the switch firmware is at the HP recommended firmware version. For more information, see the HP Moonshot Component Pack download website.
