Concurrent maintenance procedure
Concurrent maintenance of this adapter is not supported through the Hardware Management Console
(HMC). Concurrent maintenance must be inititated from the Hardware Service Manager (HSM) of the
system or owning partition. The HSM automatically turns off the power of both PCI slots when either
slot is selected.
Important:
v Both PCI slots must be powered off when installing or removing this adapter with the system power
on.
v If this adapter is the load source IOA, or under the load source IOP, or any other storage IOA/IOP
with critical DASD attached for the system, the system may temporarily hang until this procedure is
completed (the slots are powered back on and the adapter has become operational again). In this
configuration, this concurrent maintenance procedure must be done by a qualified service provider. At
step 12 on page 19, the HSM directs you to use the control panel functions 68 and 69 to turn off the
power or turn on the power on the domain.

and sign on to the system or logical partition.
