resolution protocol (ARP) from the new management module to update the network cached ARP table. Without this information relay, the new MAC address/IP association will not recognize the management module. This condition will correct itself after the ARP table times out. To prevent this condition, reconfigure the network-routing setup tables to enable ARPs to be relayed from the management module. To install a management module, complete the following steps: 1. Read the safety information that begins on page v and "Installation guidelines" on page 11 through "Handling static-sensitive devices" on page 12. 2. If you are installing a secondary management module, read "Preparing for management-module redundancy" on page 16. 3. Remove any external devices that are blocking access to the rear of the BladeCenter unit. See the Installation and User's Guide for your BladeCenter unit for instructions. 4. If you are replacing the only management module in the BladeCenter unit, and the management module is functional, save the configuration file before you proceed. To save the configuration file and restore it to the replacement management module, see the management-module User's Guide or the Command-Line Interface Reference Guide for instructions. 5. If you are replacing a management module, remove the current module from the bay (see "Removing a management module" on page 15). If you are adding a new management module, remove the module filler from the selected management-module bay and store the module filler for future use. 6. If you have not already done so, touch the static-protective package that contains the replacement management module to an unpainted metal part of the BladeCenter unit or any unpainted surface on any other grounded rack component for at least 2 seconds. 7. Remove the management module from its static-protective package. 8. Make sure that the release handle on the management module is in the open position (perpendicular to the module). 9. Slide the management module into the selected management-module bay until it stops. 10. Push the release handle on the front of the management module to the closed position. 11. Make sure that the power-on LED on the management module is lit. This indicates that the management modules are operating correctly. See "Management-module indicators and controls" on page 7 to locate the LED. 12. Connect the cables to the management module. See "Management-module video settings" on page 17 for more information. 14 BladeCenter Advanced Management Module: Installation Guide

To install a management module, complete the following steps:
1.
Read the safety information that begins on page v and “Installation
guidelines” on page 11 through “Handling static-sensitive devices” on
page 12.
2.
If you are installing a secondary management module, read “Preparing for
management-module redundancy” on page 16.
3.
Remove any external devices that are blocking access to the rear of the
BladeCenter unit. See the
Installation and User’s Guide
for your BladeCenter
unit for instructions.
4.
If you are replacing the only management module in the BladeCenter unit,
and the management module is functional, save the configuration file
before you proceed. To save the configuration file and restore it to the
replacement management module, see the management-module
User’s
Guide
or the
Command-Line Interface Reference Guide
for instructions.
5.
If you are replacing a management module, remove the current module
from the bay (see “Removing a management module” on page 15). If you
are adding a new management module, remove the module filler from the
selected management-module bay and store the module filler for future
use.
6.
If you have not already done so, touch the static-protective package that
contains the replacement management module to an unpainted metal part
of the BladeCenter unit or any unpainted surface on any other grounded
rack component for at least 2 seconds.
7.
Remove the management module from its static-protective package.
8.
Make sure that the release handle on the management module is in the
open position (perpendicular to the module).
9.
Slide the management module into the selected management-module bay
until it stops.
10.
Push the release handle on the front of the management module to the
closed position.
11.
Make sure that the power-on LED on the management module is lit. This
indicates that the management modules are operating correctly. See
“Management-module indicators and controls” on page 7 to locate the
LED.
12.
Connect the cables to the management module. See “Management-module
video settings” on page 17 for more information.
