https://community.hpe.com/t5/bladesystem-general/compatibility/m-p/4686656#M11409 I recently inhereited a c7000 blade enclosure and I need to add a few parts. I am stuck on a couple that are no longer available and wanted to check to see if I can use newer parts in this c7000 that was delivered in May of 2007. The part in question is the onboard administrator. Do I need to order 2 new ones in order to have redundancy? Thanks.

Modules use same firmware, I would put the KVM version to left side. It should work also.
