Select Model 590 Or 595 Placement - IBM p5 590 System Handbook

Figure 2-17 Select Model 590 or 595 placement
Adapters are placed based on the highest position in the table first, into the first
slot in the slot priority for that row in the table. If that slot is filled, place the card in
the next available slot in the slot priority for that adapter. Adapters have been
divided into three performance categories as required.
The first I/O-drawer at frame position EIA 05 must have a PCI-X Dual Channel
Ultra320 SCSI Adapter (FC 5712) for connection to a media device (FC
5710). It will be placed in either slot 10 or slot 20.
A blind-swap hot-plug cassette will be assigned for every adapter card on the
order. Empty slots will be assigned a blind-swap hot-plug cassette with a
plastic filler. Additional blind-swap hot-plug cassettes (FC 4599) can be
ordered through your IBM Sales Representative or IBM Business Partner.
Actual slot numbers are stamped on planar 1 = I1 through I10 (left to right
from rear). Slot numbers stamped on planar 2 are also numbered I1 through
I10 and are represented as slots 11 through 20.
