PCI Cards

Note – Add-in cards must be replaced while the riser board is removed from the
chassis.
The server supports 3V only and Universal PCI cards. It does not support 5V only
cards.
Caution – Before touching or replacing any component inside the Sun Fire V60x
and Sun Fire V65x servers, disconnect all external cables and follow the instructions
in "Safety: Before You Remove the Cover" on page 5-2 and "Removing and
Replacing the Cover" on page 5-3. Always place the server on a grounded ESD pad
and wear a properly grounded antistatic wrist strap.
Note – Disconnecting an Ethernet cable from Network 2 may interrupt network
connectivity on other network interfaces. Run the following commands to restore
connectivity to other connected network interfaces:
# /etc/rc.d/init.d/network stop
# /etc/rc.d/init.d/network start
To replace a PCI card, follow these steps while referring to Figure 5-34:
1. Before removing the cover to work inside the system, observe the previously
stated safety guidelines.
2. Remove the chassis cover.
3. Insert your finger in the plastic loop on the PCI riser assembly.
4. Pull straight up and remove the riser assembly from the chassis.
5. Open the retainer clip on the riser card retention bracket.
6. Pull the PCI card out of the riser board slot.
7. Install the new PCI add-in card on the riser assembly.
8. Insert the riser assembly connector in the server board slot while aligning the tabs
on the rear retention bracket with the holes in the chassis.
9. Firmly press the riser assembly straight down until it is seated in the server board
slot.
10. Replace the chassis cover if you have no additional work to do inside the chassis.
