Maintaining PCI cards
Issue 3.3 February 2003 73
Moving an SAI/P card – When moving SAI/P cards, remember to preserve the original
sequence of the cards. To do this, you many need to move more than one card. See
Identifying device entry names for ports on an SAI/P card
on page 71 to determine the
ordering sequence.
To move an SAI/P card to a different PCI slot location.
1. Verify that you have a recent CMSADM file system backup before you change card
configurations.
2. Remove the SAI/P software drivers. Refer to Removing SAI/P drivers and utilities
on
page 75.
3. Enter:
/usr/sbin/shutdown -y -i0 -g0
This shuts down the system.
4. Turn off the system.
5. Turn off the system monitor.
6. Turn off all external SCSI devices starting with the device that is closest to the system
and working toward the farthest device.
7. Remove the SAI/P card from the PCI slot.
8. Install the SAI/P card into a different PCI slot. See Installing or removing
PCI cards on
page 66 for more information.

and troubleshooting document for details.
