Hot-Pluggable and Hot-Swappable

installing the hardware (for example, mounting a hard drive). In the SPARC
Enterprise T5440 server, the following devices are hot-pluggable:

the server is running without affecting the rest of the server’s capabilities. In the
SPARC Enterprise T5440 server, the following devices are hot-swappable:
■

Servicing Hard Drives
The hard drives in the server are hot-pluggable, but this capability depends on how
the hard drives are configured. To hot-plug a drive you must take the drive offline
before you can safely remove it. Taking a drive offline prevents any applications
from accessing it, and removes the logical software links to it.
