Install a Switch Unit

1. Install the switch unit.
   
   1. Open the ejector arms so that they are fully open (panel 1).
   2. Install the new switch unit into its slot in the server until the ejector arms begin to engage (panel 2).
   3. Press the arms back toward the switch unit, and then press the arms firmly against the switch unit to fully seat it back into the server (panel 3).

      The lever should click into place when the switch unit is fully seated in the server.

2. Reinstall the fan modules that you removed from the faulted switch unit.

   See Install a Fan Module (Switch Chassis).

3. Check the event logs to determine whether an FPGA update is required and update the firmware, if needed.
