Step 5: Install the controller
After you install the controller module and any other components into the new chassis,
boot it to a state where you can run the interconnect diagnostic test.
About this task
For HA pairs with two controller modules in the same chassis, the sequence in which you install the controller
module is especially important because it attempts to reboot as soon as you completely seat it in the chassis.
Steps
1. Align the end of the controller module with the opening in the chassis, and then gently push the controller
module halfway into the system.
Do not completely insert the controller module in the chassis until instructed to do so.
2. Recable the console to the controller module, and then reconnect the management port.
3. Repeat the preceding steps if there is a second controller to install in the new chassis.
4. Complete the installation of the controller module:
If your system is in… Then perform these steps…
An HA pair a. With the cam handle in the open position, firmly push the
controller module in until it meets the midplane and is fully seated,
and then close the cam handle to the locked position.
Do not use excessive force when sliding the
controller module into the chassis to avoid
damaging the connectors.
b. If you have not already done so, reinstall the cable management
device.
c. Bind the cables to the cable management device with the hook
and loop strap.
d. Repeat the preceding steps for the second controller module in
the new chassis.
