8. Attach the power cable to the new power module that was installed in the

BladeCenter unit; then, route the cables through the strain-relief clamp. Leave

enough slack when routing the cable so that it can be disconnected, if

necessary.

Thumb screw

a. Unscrew the thumb screw and remove the strain-relief clamp from the

power module.

b. Wrap the strain-relief clamp around the power cable, leaving about a 10

cm (4 in.) slack in each cable.

c. Reattach the strain-relief clamp to the power module and secure it with the

thumb screw.

9. Make sure that the other end of the power cable is attached to a 220-volt

power distribution unit (PDU) or directly into a 220-volt ac power outlet.

10. Make sure the LEDs on the power module indicate that it is operating properly.

Verify that the dc and ac power LEDs on the power module are lit. During

typical operation, both the ac and dc power LEDs are lit.

11. Repeat steps 3 through 10 for the second power module (power module 2 or

power module 4). If there are no additional power modules to install continue

with step 12.

12. Replace the acoustic module option, if you removed it previously.

13. If you are replacing power modules with power modules that have a different

wattage rating, install the power information label that comes with the new

power modules on the BladeCenter unit. Install the label following the

instructions that are on the label.

14. Upgrade all management modules installed in the BladeCenter unit to the

latest level of management-module firmware. The latest firmware is at the IBM

Support Web site at http://www.ibm.com/pc/support/.
