Installing a Hot-Pluggable PCI Adapter
Note: This system contains PCI hot-pluggable adapters, so the system does not need
to be shut down and the power cables removed before adding or replacing an
adapter.
To add or install an adapter, do the following:
1. On a Model 6C4, open the front and rear rack doors and put the system into the
service position as described in “Placing the Model 6C4 into the Service Position”
On a Model 6E4, open the bezel door.
2. Remove the service access cover (1) as described in “Service Access Cover
Removal (Model 6C4)” on page 55 or “Service Access Cover Removal (Model
6E4)” on page 57.
3. Refer to the
PCI Adapter Placement Reference, order number SA38-0538, for
information regarding slot restrictions for adapters that can be used in this system.
4. If necessary, remove the adapter expansion slot shield.
5. Before handling any card, board, or memory DIMM, touch any metal surface of the
chassis with one hand to minimize static electric discharge. Refer to “Handling
Static-Sensitive Devices” on page 50.
6. If necessary, remove the adapter from the antistatic package.
Attention: Avoid touching the components and gold-edge connectors on the
adapter.
7. Place the adapter, component-side up, on a flat, static-protective surface.
8. Set any jumpers or switches as described by the adapter manufacturer.
9. Refer to “PCI Hot-Plug Manager Access” on page 73 and follow the steps in the
access procedure to select PCI Hot Plug Manager. Then return here to continue.
10. From the PCI Hot-Plug Manager menu, select Add a PCI Hot-Plug Adapter and
press Enter. The Add a Hot-Plug Adapter window displays.
11. See the
PCI Adapter Placement Reference, order number SA38-0538, for adapter
placement information. Then select an empty PCI slot for the adapter.
12. Select the appropriate empty PCI slot from the ones listed on the screen, and
press Enter.
