Servicing a Blade Server
The VIC 1340 and VIC 1380 require a Cisco UCS 6200 Series Fabric Interconnect, and they support the Cisco
Nexus 2208XP and 2204XP FEX modules.
The VIC 1240 and VIC 1280 support Cisco UCS 6200 and 6100 Series Fabric Interconnects, and they support
the Cisco Nexus 2208XP, 2204XP, and 2104XP FEX modules. When a VIC 1240 or 1280 is used with a UCS
6100 Series Fabric Interconnect, the UCS B200 M4 blade server requires a maximum software release of
2.2(x) for Cisco UCS Manager.
If you are switching from one type of adapter card to another, before you physically perform the switch make
sure that you download the latest device drivers and load them into the server's operating system. For more
information, see the firmware management chapter of one of the Cisco UCS Manager software configuration
guides.
The Cisco Fusion-io Drive mezzanine and other non-IO adapter cards can be installed and removed using the
same procedures. Using these cards in a UCS B200 M4 blade server requires the presence of a VIC 1340 or
VIC 1240 mLOM to provide blade I/O. They will not work in M1 and M2 Cisco UCS servers.
Procedure
Step 1 Position the adapter board connector above the motherboard connector and align the two adapter captive
screws to the standoff posts on the motherboard.
Step 2
Firmly press the adapter connector into the motherboard connector (callout 2).
Step 3 Tighten the two captive screws (callout 3).
