In the following example, modems are connected to the ASM PCI adapters that are
included with the servers that are connected at each end of the ASM interconnect
network bus. Placing modems at opposite ends of the ASM interconnect network
bus ensures that if an ASM interconnect connection in the bus fails, all of the
systems on the ASM interconnect network have access to a modem to forward
system-management data to the remote system-management administrator. This is
an environment with different models of servers.
Hard disk drives
The server supports two 26 mm (1-inch) slim 3.5-inch hot-swap SCSI hard disk
drives.
Note: You can hot-swap a hard disk drive without interrupting processing and
