There are three hot-swap models described in the PICMG ATCA specification: basic
hot-swap, full hot-swap, and high-availability (HA) hot-swap. Refer to the PICMG
ATCA Specification, which provides a detailed description of this subject.
This process uses hardware connection control to connect the hardware in an orderly

System Requirements
This section contains the system-level hardware and software requirements for the
Sun Netra CP3060 blade server.
Description
Default boot path uses the Ethernet port; when the blade server
runs in diskless client configuration.
SATA devices can be used for local booting.
Serial port on front panel provides a path for a console I/O.
The serial port can be used on either the Sun Netra CP3060
blade server or Sun Netra CP3060 RTM, but both ports cannot
be used at the same time. If the serial port on Sun Netra CP3060
blade server is used, the serial port on the Sun Netra CP3060
RTM should not be used and vise versa.
The Compact Flash connector can be used to add an optional
8-Gbyte user flash type I/II memory card.
