3. Review the locations of PCIe adapter slots and the light-emitting diode (LED) for the PCIe adapter.
The PCIe adapters are viewed at the rear of the system.
Figure 16 on page 23 shows the locations of the PCIe adapters in an 9008-22L, 9009-22A, or
9223-22H system and the locations of the light-emitting diodes (LEDs) for the PCIe adapter.
The number of the PCIe adapter slots that are available in the system depends on the number of
system processors in the system. For the PCIe adapter placement information in this system, see
PCIe adapter placement rules and slot priorities for the 9008-22L, 9009-22A, or 9223-22H.
Note: If the PCIe adapter is operating correctly, then the top activity LED is ON (green) and the lower
error amber LED is OFF. Do not attempt to remove a working PCIe adapter.

4. Choose from the following options:
• If you want to remove a PCIe adapter when the system power is turned off, continue with step "5"
on page 24.
• If the system power is turned on and if the AIX operating system controls the slot, continue with
step "7" on page 27.
• If the system power is turned on and if the IBM i operating system controls the slot, continue with
step "8" on page 29.
