Verifying the installation of supervisor and switching modules

Use this procedure to verify the module installation.

Procedure

To verify the module installation, complete the following steps.

  1. Verify that the ejector levers of each module are fully closed.

    Their position is parallel to the front of the module when closed. Closed ejector levers ensures that the supervisor module and all switching or services modules are fully seated in the backplane connectors.

  2. Check the captive screws of each module, the power supply, and the fan module. Tighten any loose captive screws to 8 in-lb.
  3. Verify that any empty module slots have filler panels and that the screws that hold the panels in place are tight.
  4. Turn on the power supply switches to power up the system and check the LEDs on the modules.
