Removing Modules - HP ProCurve 9304M Installation And Configuration Manual

3. Remove the module from its packaging.
4. Insert the module into the chassis slot and glide the card along the card guide until the card ejectors on the
front of the module touch the chassis.
CAUTION: To avoid hardware damage during installation, be careful to properly line up the edges of the
module board with the guides built into the module slot on the chassis.
NOTE: Modules for the HP 9308M and HP 9315M slide in vertically with the module label (e.g. ProCurve
9300) and port number 1 at the top (Figure 2.4). Modules for the HP 9304M slide in horizontally with the
module label (e.g. ProCurve 9300) and port number 1 on the left (Figure 2.5).
5. Push the ejectors toward the center of the module until they are flush with the front panel of the module. The
module will be fully seated in the backplane.
6. Tighten the two screws at either end of the module.
CAUTION: If one or more of the slots remains unused, make sure that a slot cover plate is still attached over
each unused slot for safe operation and proper system cooling.
Use the CESD grounding tap (provided by HP) before connecting Category 5 or better UTP copper
networking cables.
NOTE: If installing a module into a slot previously occupied by a different type of module , you must use the
CLI to configure the new module (with the CLI command, module <slot-num> <module-type>) and then use
the write memory command to save the configuration and the reload command to reset the Routing Switch.
Refer to "Swapping Modules" on page 2-34. If the slot has never contained a module or you are swapping in
exactly the same type of module, you do not need to enter these commands.

Removing Modules

To remove a module from the chassis, do the following:
1. Put on an ESD wrist strap and attach the copper tape to a metal surface (e.g. an equipment rack) to act as
ground.
WARNING:To avoid risk of shock, do not attach the copper tape to the air flow panel of the power supply.
2. Loosen the two screws on the module.
