Enabling the Removal of a PCIe Card
1.
Release the PCIe card from the system.
Note - When you add a PCIe card or perform maintenance in the inactive or system-stopped
state, this step is not necessary.
Note - To release a PCIe card from an active system by using PCI Hot Plug or PPAR DR, you
need to make sure that the I/O resource of the PCIe card to be released or the I/O resource of
the SPARC M12-2S to be released is not assigned to a logical domain. For details, see
Releasing I/O Resources From a Logical
Related to Logical Domain Configurations" in the Fujitsu SPARC M12 and Fujitsu M10/
SPARC M10 Domain Configuration Guide.
