Major components of the switch module
Blue on a component indicates a touch point, where you can grip the component to remove
it from or install it in the Blade unit, open or close a latch, and so on.
Green on a component or an green label on or near a component indicates that the
component can be hot-swapped. This means that if the Blade unit and operating system
support hot-swap capability, you can remove or install the component while the Blade unit
is running. Green can also indicate touch points on hot-swap components. See the
instructions in Chapter 2, “Installing and replacing a switch module,” on page 11 and other
Blades documentation on the Resource CD for removing or installing a specific hot-swap
component for any additional procedures that you might have to perform before you can
remove or install the component.
