Installing a card

Unless otherwise stated, MPUs, LPUs, and switching fabric modules are collectively referred to as "cards"
in this document.
All cards of the HP FlexFabric 12900 switch are hot swappable.
For compatibility between the HP FlexFabric 12900 switches and all cards, see "Appendix B FRUs and
compatibility matrixes."
After all cards are installed, start the switch to view the status LEDs on the MPU to examine the running
status of the cards. If a RUN LED is flashing, the card in the slot is operating correctly. For more
information about card status LEDs, see "Appendix C LEDs."
