PCI adapter placement rules and slot priorities for the 8202-E4B,
8202-E4C, 8202-E4D, 8205-E6B, 8205-E6C, or 8205-E6D
Some adapters must be placed in specific peripheral component interconnect (PCI), peripheral component
interconnect-X (PCI-X), or PCI Express (PCIe) slots to function correctly or to perform optimally. Learn
how to determine the slots in the server or expansion units where you can install the PCI adapters.
PCI slot descriptions for the 8202-E4B and 8205-E6B
Figure 1, Figure 2 on page 21 shows the rear view of the server with the location codes for the PCI
adapter slots. Figure 3 on page 21 shows the four PCIe x8 low-profile slots as an optional PCIe expansion
feature. The PCIe expansion feature is installed at the GX++ slot 1. Each PCIe is a separate PCI host
bridge (PHB).
The Table 4 on page 22 lists the adapter slot locations and details for the 8202-E4B and 8205-E6B.
