Replace a PCIe HBA (SAS, FC, or NIC)
The system uses a variety of PCIe HBAs to provide network, FC, or storage connectivity. If a port fails, the whole card requires
replacement.
CAUTION:
This procedure does not apply to replacing the NVRAM module.
Complete the following procedure to replace an HBA.
This CRU is not hot-swappable, and requires a system shutdown to replace.
