Installing the Switch Module into the Server Chassis
Waiting for POST to Complete
Follow these steps:
Step 1 Wait for the switch to complete POST. It might take several minutes for the switch to complete POST.
Step 2 Verify that POST has completed by confirming that the System Status/ID LED is off and that the
Console LED is solid green or amber. If the switch fails POST because of a misconfiguration or error,
the System Status/ID LED blinks green, and the Console LED is off.
Log into the DRAC/MC console to get more details about the failure mode.
POST errors are usually fatal. Call Cisco Customer Support immediately if your switch fails POST.
See item 4 in Figure 1-1 on page 1-2 for the location of the System Status/ID LED and the Console LED.
Step 3 Wait for the switch to complete flash initialization. When you see the prompt Press Return to Get
Started!, press Return or Enter.
Step 4 Make sure that the System Status/ID LED on the switch module is off and that the Console LED is green
or amber. This means that the switch module is operating properly.
Step 5 See the “Completing the Initial Configuration” section on page 2-11 for instructions on setting up and
initially configuring the switch module.
