Issue with FlexFabric module placement.
Prasenjit had a module question:
*******************
Can I install VC Flex-10 in Bay 1 and 2, VC FC Module in Bay 3 and 4 and VC FF in Bay 5 and 6? I did it and after that my FF is showing amber light there.
********************
From Chris:
*******************
Check you MEZZ cards and make sure you don’t have a Network card on MEZZ 3 of your blades.
******************
And then from David:
*********************
It appears to be supported from the latest Install guide.

What version is the VC code for each module. You need to have VC 3.15 to recognize the FlexFabric modules.
