Unpacking and installing the Embedded Switch Module

If the Embedded Switch Module is installed in the Blade Server chassis as shipped to you, skip this section. This
section applies when installing a new module in an empty bay or replacing an existing Embedded Switch Module.
Perform the following steps to remove the Embedded Switch Module from its shipping package.
1. Open the shipping box and inspect the contents.
Do not insert a damaged Embedded Switch Module into the Blade Server chassis. If the Embedded Switch
Module appears to be damaged, contact your sales representative before proceeding.
2. Remove the cardboard accessory tray from on top of the Embedded Switch Module.
This tray contains the documentation, regulatory statements, product information guide, and Documentation
CD.
3. Remove the Embedded Switch Module from the box.
The protective foam ends will slide out with the Embedded Switch Module.
4. Remove the foam ends from the Embedded Switch Module.
5. Be sure that you have taken the necessary precautions for electrostatic sensitivity; then break the seal warning.
6. Slide the Embedded Switch Module out of the antistatic sleeve and inspect it carefully for any obvious defects or
shipping damage.

Cabling guidelines

After modifying the Embedded Switch Module's IP address and domain name (if the Embedded Switch Module is in
Fabric OS Native mode), we recommend that you cable all external ports to fabric connections before bringing the
Embedded Switch Module online. Refer to one of the following procedures for steps on modifying the IP address:
•
"Using the PRIMERGY BX900 Management Blade CLI to change system settings"
•
"Using the PRIMERGY BX900 Management Blade GUI to set the IP address"
Begin by cabling ports 19 through 25 and 0. Ports 19 and 20 are licensed at the factory as part of Dynamic Ports On
Demand (DPOD). By cabling these ports first, you will not need to move licenses to other ports you may have cabled.
