To install a hot-plug PCI adapter:
Attention: When you handle Electrostatic Discharge-Sensi-
tive devices (ESD), take precautions to avoid damage from
static electricity. For details on handling these devices, refer
to the following Web site and search for ESD:
http://www.ibm.com
1. Remove the top cover (see "Removing the server top
cover and bezel" on page 67).
2. Determine which expansion slot you will use for the
adapter.
Note: All six PCI slots support hot-plug PCI adapters.
3. Disable the selected PCI slot from your operating sys-
tem. (Refer to the documentation that comes with your
operating system for information about disabling a hot-
plug PCI slot.) Disabling the PCI slot turns off the
power-on light for that PCI slot.
Attention: Make sure that the power-on light for the
hot-plug PCI slot is off before you continue with the
next step.
4. Remove the expansion-slot cover:
a. Rotate the adapter retention latch counterclock-
wise.
b. Lift the tab on the top of the expansion-slot cover;
then, remove the expansion-slot cover from the
server. Store it in a safe place for future use.
