Installing a CompactFlash Card

To install a CompactFlash card, follow these steps:

Step 1 Position the CompactFlash card with the connector end of the card toward the slot. The connector end of the card is on the opposite side of the write-protection switch.

Step 2 Insert the card into the slot until the card is firmly seated in the connector at the back of the slot and the ejector button pops out toward you.

Caution The card does not insert all the way inside the slot; a portion of the card remains outside the slot. Do not attempt to force the card past this point or you could damage the connector pins.

Removing and Installing Clock Modules

The Cisco MDS 9500 Series includes one or more clock modules that are accessible from the back of the chassis. In the unlikely event of a clock module failure, Cisco recommends that the failed clock module be replaced during a maintenance window. The Cisco MDS 9513 and 9509 Directors have two field-replacable clock modules. The Cisco MDS 9506 Director has one field-replacable clock module. A separate procedure is provided for each type of director:
