    Four 66-MHz PCI/PCI-X slots are shared in groups of two. Shared slots have many speed and mode change restrictions during hot-plug add or remove operations. For more information on PCI/PCI-X card configuration and restrictions, see “PCI/PCI-X/PCIe Configurations” (page 194). Four of the server PCI/PCI-X slots are not shared. Two of the nonshared slots are 133 MHz PCI/PCI-X, and two of the slots are 266-MHz PCI/PCI-X.

    Larger MPS values can enable the optimization to gain higher performance. MPS Optimization is supported on PCIe systems running HP-UX, OpenVMS, and Linux. System firmware level greater than 02.03 performs an optimization during boot time to set the MPS value to the largest size supported by both a PCIe root port and the devices below it.
