Rules for System Configuration Some of the following rules are suggestions for optimizing your system. Other rules are strictly required and are marked with the notation: (Requirement) or (Maximum). D.1 Card Cage As a general rule, all board slots in the card cage are interchangeable. However, the requirements and limitations in the following sections apply when you install boards.
2. You must fill all empty slots (board slots and power supply slots) to avoid loss of cooling air to the active boards. (Requirement) For further information on this subject, see Section D.1.5, “Filler Panels and Load Boards.” Ultra Enterprise 6000/5000/4000 Systems Manual—November 1996...
3. Under some circumstances, you may remove a power/cooling module from an active system for a short time. However, if the boards in the adjacent slots create large quantities of heat, it is safer to halt and power off the system first.
Only the peripheral power supply provides precharge current to the system. The peripheral power supply must be fully functional if you replace a hot- pluggable board or PCM. If the peripheral power supply cannot supply precharge current, the hot-pluggable unit will be damaged. (Requirement) Ultra Enterprise 6000/5000/4000 Systems Manual—November 1996...
