until you feel resistance. Continue to gently push the blade until the blade connectors
engage.
5. Fully insert the blade and push the handle towards the face plate. The latch
automatically slides inwards and locks the handle.
If you feel that you need an abnormal amount of force during blade insertion to insert
the blade into the slot, please extract the blade, then carefully inspect the blade and
slot for problems to prevent damage.
If your shelf is powered, as soon as the blade is connected to the backplane power
pins, the blue LED is illuminated.
When the blade is completely installed, the blue LED starts to blink. This indicates
that the blade has announced its presence to the shelf management controller.
If an RTM is connected to the front blade, make sure that the handles of both the
RTM and the front blade are closed in order to power up the blade's payload.
