Hardware Installation
Overview
The HP Advanced Services zl Module with Microsoft® Windows Server® 2008
R2 (J9666A) is a zl switch module with integrated Windows Server 2008 R2,
Standard Edition, software. The module has a 250GB hard disk drive (HDD)
and 4GB of DDR3 memory. The server software on the HDD is prelicensed.
You install the Advanced Services Module with Microsoft Windows Server
2008 R2 in an HP E5400 zl or E8200 zl Series switch. The module automatically
boots to the Windows Server 2008 R2 OS.
The software license allows you to run one instance of the server in the
physical operating system environment (POSE) and one in a virtual operating
system environment (VOSE). However, if you are running an instance in the
VOSE, the instance in the POSE can do nothing but manage the instance in
the VOSE. For more information on using virtualization with Windows Server
2008 R2, see the Microsoft web site at http://www.microsoft.com/
windowserver2008.
Because the server is headless, you access it through a Remote Desktop
Protocol (RDP) connection. You can then manage the server just as you would
a server that runs on traditional server hardware. You can also manage the
module itself with an easy to use Command Line Interface (CLI) that is
accessed through the CLI for the switch that houses the module.
Important HP zl switch software version K.14.65 or later is required. Version K.15.03 or
later is recommended because this version allows an E8200 zl switch with dual
management modules to gracefully shut down and restart the module in case
of a management module failover. Earlier software versions power down the
module without the graceful shutdown. For more information, see Appendix
D.
For a description of the front panel buttons and LEDs, see Appendix D.

Hardware Installation
Install the Module
Install the Module
The module is hot-swappable; that is, the HP zl switch can be powered on or
off when you install the module within it. The following procedure assumes
the switch is powered on.
Caution Although the module is hot-swappable, you must reboot the HP zl switch
before installing the module in a slot that used to support a different type of
module. Otherwise, the module will fail to boot.
Installation Precautions
Static electricity can severely damage the electronic components on the
module. When handling and installing the module, follow these proce-
dures to avoid damage from static electricity:
• Handle the module by its bulkhead or edges and avoid touching the
components and the circuitry on the board.
• When installing the module, equalize any static charge difference
between your body and the switch by wearing a grounding wrist
strap and attaching it to the switch’s metal body, or by frequently
touching the switch’s metal body.
The module has “low-force,” high-performance connectors. High inser-
tion forces are not necessary to install the module, and should not be
used.
Ensure the module is fully inserted. Press the module into the slot
until the bulkhead on the module contacts or is very close to contacting
the front face of the switch chassis.
Once the module is fully inserted, screw in the two retaining screws to
secure the module in place.
For safe operation, proper switch cooling, and reduction of electromag-
netic emissions, ensure that a slot cover is installed on any unused
module slot. For safety, no more than one slot should be uncovered at a
time, even temporarily, when the switch is powered on.
Check the temperature specifications for the module; different modules
have different temperature requirements.

Install the Module
Installation Procedure
1. Use a Torx T-10 or flat-bladed screwdriver to unscrew the screws in the
cover plates over the slot where you will install the module. Store the
cover plates for possible future use.
2. Hold the module by its bulkhead, taking care not to touch the metal
connectors or components on the board.
3. Open the extractor handles.
4. Insert the module, aligning with the guides in the slots, and slide it into
the slot until it is fully inserted.
5. Once the module is fully inserted, use the extractor handles to set it
completely.
6. Tighten the screws.

The procedure to replace or remove a module is described in “Replacing or
Removing a Module” on page C-6 in Appendix C: “Hardware Components.”

Verifying That the Module Is Installed Correctly
If you have installed the module in a powered off HP zl switch, power up the
switch. After the switch powers up, the module will begin to power up. If you
have installed the module in a powered on switch, the module begins to power
up immediately. The initial bootup takes several minutes. You can determine
when this process is complete by viewing the Module Status LED, which
becomes solid green when the module is ready.
Caution Do not remove the module or interrupt this process in any way.
Later, whenever you reboot or power on the module, it goes through a similar
bootup and self test process. Again, the Module Status LED becomes solid
green when the module is ready.
Table 1-1. LED Behavior
Error conditions indicated by the module LEDs are described in Table C-1 on
page C-2 in Appendix C, “Hardware Components.”

Test Switch ON briefly while the module is undergoing self test, then OFF.
Note:If the module was installed with theswitch powered off, and
then the switch was powered on, the Test LED will stay ON for the
duration of the switch self test.
TheTest, Fault,and ModuleStatus LEDs are clearly marked on the
E5400 zl or E8200 zl Series switch chassis. For help locating them,
refer to Figure C-3 and Figure C-4 on page C-5 in Appendix C,
“Hardware Components.”

Table 1-3. Maximum Advanced Services Modules
*Notes on the Advanced Services Module operating temperature:
1. Operate at 50°C
a. The Advanced Services Module can operate in an HP E5406 zl or
E5412 zl switch at up to 50°C if you install all Advanced Services
Modules on the left side of the chassis (when you face the front, or
port side, or the switch). In other words, the left side slots are A, C,
E, G, I, and K. See Figure 1-3 on page 1-7.
b. If you want an E5406 zl switch to operate at up to 50°C, the switch
supports a maximum of three Advanced Services Modules (because
the switch has three slots on the left side).
2. Operate at 45°C
a. The 45°C limit applies to the E5406 zl and E5412 zl switches if any
Advanced Services Modules are installed on the chassis’ right side,
which includes module slots B, D, F, H, J, and L. See Figure 1-3 on
page 1-7.
b. The 45°C limit always applies to the E8206 zl and E8212 zl switches
no matter where you install the Advanced Services Modules.
