## Install a PCIe EM

1. Complete one of the following procedures:

   - If you are not installing a Gigabit-Ethernet PCIe EM, go to Step 2.

   - If you are installing a Gigabit Ethernet PCIe EM, continue this step:

   1. Press the Release button on the side of the GbE PCIe EM to release its cover, then remove the cover.
   2. Locate the PCIe EM MAC address, which is visible in the PCIe EM when the cover is removed.
   3. Record the MAC address of the PCIe EM, and record the chassis slot number where you plan to install the GbE PCIe EM. Keep the data for future reference.
   4. Replace the GbE PCIe EM cover by sliding the cover into place.
2. Align the PCIe EM with the vacant PCIe EM slot.

   Ensure that the indicator lights on the front panel of the PCIe EM are facing toward you and that the PCIe EM ejector lever on the bottom is fully opened.

3. Slide the PCIe EM into the vacant PCIe EM chassis slot.

   The ejector lever starts to pop up as the module engages with the system slot.

4. Complete the installation by closing the ejector lever to secure the PCIe EM in the chassis.
5. Notify the operating system that a new PCIe EM is installed.

   You might also need to enable the Option ROM on the server to enable booting from the PCIe EM.

   See the server module documentation for more information.

6. Verify that the PCIe EM Power LED is on.

   If the hot-insert procedure was successful, the green Power LED illuminates.
