Reseating HSI/P cards
The HSI/P cards may appear to be faulty when they just need to be reseated in the PCI
slot. Before you replace the card, try reseating the card.
To reseat an HSI/P card:
1. Log in to the system as root.
2. Enter:
/usr/sbin/shutdown -y -i0 -g0
This shuts down the system.
3. Turn off the system.
4. Turn off the system monitor.
5. Turn off all external SCSI devices, starting with the device that is closest to the system
and working toward the farthest device.
6. Disconnect the HSI/P quad cable connected to the card.
7. Remove and replace the suspect HSI/P card. See Installing or removing
PCI cards on
page 66 for detailed instructions.
8. Reattach the HSI/P quad cable.
9. Turn on any external SCSI devices, starting with the device that is farthest from the
system and working toward the system.
10. Turn on the system monitor.
11. Turn on the system.
12. When the system comes back up, log in as root.
13. Test the card to see if it is now working. If the card is still not working, see Replacing an
HSI/P card on page 78.
