JL083A module not found in hp Aruba 2930M switch

date 11/8/2018,  I just ordered JL083a  (4 port ) 10 gig SFP card to install into the HP Aruba 2930M. Upon adding expansion card shutdown power instlled and reboot. As you say and I see; the card is not being found in the show run command.   

i did >show run,>show int br, >erase startup-config, >show module  and its still not seeing card and firmware is old like  your notes  #WC.16.04.0004 and I seen a new firmware  16.004.008.  I have not tried to update firmware yet.  

basically was hoping plug and play like the 4 smart-card

Do yourself a favour and update your (never released) WC.16.04.0004 to latest, as of today, WC.16.07.0002. Once done paste the output of show modules command...the JL083A should be properly recognized and listed.
