When you install a CMM,
take the opportunity to download and apply the most recent firmware
updates. This step will help to ensure that any known issues are addressed
and that your CMM is
ready to function at maximum levels of performance.
You can update CMM firmware
using the CMM web
interface on the Firmware page (select Firmware from the Mgt
Module Management menu). All fields and options are fully described
in the CMM web
interface online help.
You can update CMM firmware
using the CMM CLI update command
(see update command for information about command
use).
You can also update CMM firmware
through SNMP.
Observe good housekeeping in the area where you are working. Place
removed covers and other parts in a safe place.
Back up all important data before you make changes.
You do not have to shut down the Flex System Enterprise
Chassis before
you remove a CMM.
The orange color on components and labels in your Flex System Enterprise
Chassis identifies
hot-swap components. You can install or remove hot-swap modules and,
with some restrictions, hot-swap compute nodes while the Flex System Enterprise
Chassis is
running. For details about installing or removing a CMM,
see the detailed information in this section.
Blue on a component indicates touch points, where you can grip
the component to remove it or install it, open or close a latch, and
so on.
