When the node is almost all the way in the slot, you might feel some resistance. This resistance is normal. It comes from
the connector on the rear of the module meeting its socket on the inside of the chassis.
Step 3
Press on both ends of the faceplate to seat the module, then push the ejectors inward to secure the node in the slot.
The node is fully seated when the ejectors click into place and are flush with the node's faceplate.
Step 4
Using Cisco management software, such as Cisco Intersight Managed Mode (IMM), power on the PCIe node's paired
compute node.
Step 5
After the paired compute node is completely powered on, use Cisco's management software, such as Cisco Intersight
Managed Mode (IMM), to rediscover the PCIe node.
PCIe Node Configuration
The Cisco UCS X440p PCIe Node can be configured and managed using the Cisco Intersight management
platform in Intersight Managed Mode (Cisco Intersight Managed Mode). For details, see the
Cisco Intersight
Managed Mode Configuration Guide
