This section gives the procedure for installing a hot-plug PCI
adapter. If your operating system supports hot-plug PCI
adapters, you can replace a failing hot-plug PCI adapter with
a new adapter of the same type without turning off power to
the server. If your operating system and adapter also sup-
port the hot-add feature, you can install a new adapter with-
out turning off the power to the server.
Before you begin:
• Review the information in "Before you begin" on page
63 and "Working inside the server with the power on"
on page 64.
• Read the documentation that comes with your adapter
for any special requirements or restrictions.
• Read the documentation that comes with your operat-
ing system.
Attention: Do not remove a hot-plug PCI adapter before
performing the operating-system-defined procedure for dis-
abling the Active PCI (hot-plug) slot that contains the
adapter. Failure to do so might cause your system to lock
up. Refer to your operating-system documentation.
