Servicing the mLOM

The UCS X210c M6 compute node supports a modular LOM (mLOM) card to provide additional rear-panel
connectivity. The mLOM socket is on the rear corner of the motherboard.
The mLOM socket provides a Gen-3 x16 PCIe lane. The socket remains powered when the compute node is
in 12 V standby power mode and it supports the network communications services interface (NCSI) protocol.
Note
If your mLOM card is a Cisco UCS Virtual Interface Card (VIC).
To service the mLOM card, use the following procedures:

Installing an mLOM Card

Use this task to install an mLOM onto the compute node.
Before you begin
If the compute node is not already removed from the chassis, power it down and remove it now. You might
need to disconnect cables to remove the compute node.
Step 1 Remove the top cover.
See Removing a Compute Node Cover, on page
Step 2 Orient the mLOM card so that the socket is facing down.

used. Namespaces can also be created when creating goals. A namespace provisioning of persistent
memory applies only to the selected region.
Existing namespace attributes such as the size cannot be modified. You can only add or delete namespaces.
