Check the following website to ensure you have the latest part numbers associated with this server: http://partsurfer.hp.com/cgi-bin/spi/main Installing an Additional PCI-X Card IMPORTANT: While the installation process for PCI/PCI-X cards and PCI-e cards is the same, PCI-e cards are physically smaller than PCI-X cards and are not interchangeable.
Page 64 IMPORTANT: The installation process varies depending on what method for installing the PCI card is selected. PCI I/O card installation procedures should be downloaded from the http://docs.hp.com/ Web site. Background information and procedures for adding a new PCI I/O card using online addition are found in the Interface Card OL* Support Guide. PCI I/O OL* Card Methods There are three methods for performing OL* operations on PCI I/O cards.

IMPORTANT: If you are installing the A6869B in HP servers based on the sx1000 chipset, such as HP Superdome, rx7620 or rx8620, the system firmware must be updated to a minimum revision of 3.88. IMPORTANT: Search for available PCI slots that support the conventional clock speed to conserve availability of higher speed PCI-X card slots to PCI-X cards that utilize the higher bandwidth.

Page 68: Verifying The Safety Ground (Single Power Source)
Figure 3-21 Voltage Reference Points for IEC 320 C19 Plug IMPORTANT: Perform these measurements for every power cord that plugs into the server. Measure the voltage between L1 and L2. This is considered to be a phase-to-phase measurement in North America. In Europe and certain parts of Asia-Pacific, this measurement is referred to as a phase-to-neutral measurement.
Page 69: Verifying The Safety Ground (Dual Power Source)
Figure 3-22 Safety Ground Reference Check WARNING! SHOCK HAZARD Risk of shock hazard while testing primary power. Use properly insulated probes. Be sure to replace access cover when finished testing primary power. Measure the voltage between A0 and A1 as follows: Take the AC voltage down to the lowest scale on the volt meter.
