c.Grasp the two ejector levers using the thumb and forefinger of each hand, and press down to create a small 0.040-inch (1-mm) gap between the module's EMI gasket and the module above it.

Caution Do not press down too forcefully on the levers because they can bend.

d.While pressing down, simultaneously close the top and bottom ejector levers to completely seat the module in the midplane connector. The ejector levers are completely closed when they are flush with the front of the module.

 

 

 

 

Note

Ensure that the ejector levers are completely closed before tightening the captive screws. Failure

 

 

 

 

 

to completely seat the module in the backplane connector can result in error messages.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

e. Tighten the two captive screws on the module until they are finger tight.

 

 

 

Step 12

Verify that the LED light on the front of the module is green. The light should come on within five

 

 

 

 

seconds of the module being inserted. If it does not, check to see if the module is seated correctly in the

 

 

 

 

slot.

 

 

 

 

 

Step 13

Enter the system switchover command to put the other supervisor in active mode.
