Installation precautions • Static electricity can severely damage the electronic components on the module. When handling and installing the module, follow these procedures 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.
2 Installing WARNING! This is a general procedure. It is the installer’s responsibility to perform the installation in accordance with local electrical code and regulations. You can install a maximum of four modules in a 5406zl, three modules in 8206zl, and up to six modules in 5412zl and 8212zl chassis, assuming that no other service modules are installed in the chassis. See “Environmental specifications” (page 7) for additional restrictions.
is installed while the switch already has power. The switch and module LEDs indicate if the module has passed the self-test, as described in the following table. NOTE: At power-on and during module self-tests, all LEDs turn on for at least 7 seconds and go through their range of colors. Once the self-tests have completed, all LEDs return to behaving normally.

3 Initially connecting and configuring This chapter describes how to connect to the switch, configure the switch for the module, and then perform initial module configuration. Finally, information on restarting and resetting the module is provided. Connect to the switch Although full information on the switch CLI (command line interface) is provided in the switch documentation, the basic switch CLI commands needed to work with the module are provided in this document.
4. Press any key to continue. The switch CLI prompt appears. It looks similar to: HP-8212zl# NOTE: If the switch menu appears instead, return to the top-level menu and select Command Line (CLI). The switch CLI prompt appears, similar to: HP-8212zl# Verify switch software version Before configuring the module, verify that the switch software version is at least Version K.15.14. 1. At the switch CLI prompt, enter: show version 2. The software version information is displayed: Image stamp: ...
2. 3. Press Enter. Select Switch Configuration. 4. From the Switch Configuration menu, select VLAN Menu. 5. Select VLAN Names. 6. Add VLANs to the module. The example shows two VLANs, with names zlModule_VLAN1 and zlModule_VLAN2.
7. Select VLAN Port Assignment. 8. 9. Select Edit and then use the arrow keys to select the DEFAULT_VLAN column of port D1i. Use the space bar to change values and the arrow keys to move between items. Moving from left to right, set port D1i to No, Untagged, No. Set port D2i to No, No, Untagged. Ports D1i and D2i should now look like this: 10. Use the arrow keys to select the DEFAULT_VLAN cell for port A1.
11. Select Save when finished, and then select Return to Main Menu. Install VMware vSphere You can install the VMware vSphere from a CD, DVD, USB Flash, or through Preboot Execution Environment (PXE). For more information about the installation options, see VMware vSphere Installation and Setup Guide. Boot from a CD/DVD The following procedures describe how to download the VMware vSphere ISO image, create a boot CD/DVD and boot from the CD/DVD. 1. Download the VMware vSphere 5.
7. To switch to the module serial console from the switch CLI prompt, enter: services serial The module boots from the CD/DVD image installed in the CD/DVD drive. You can now install VMware vSphere 5.5 ISO image on the Advanced Services v2 zl Module. Follow the instructions from the VMware’s Installation and Setup Guide to install the image. Boot from a USB flash drive The following procedures describe how to download the VMware vSphere ISO image, create a boot USB flash drive and boot from it.
