4.2.1.2 Disconnecting a PCI card
Caution – Before you remove the PCI cassette, make sure that there is no activity on
the card in the cassette.
Caution – In the PCI cassette part, when removing cables such as LAN cable, if
your finger can't reach the latch lock of the connector, press the latch with a flathead
screwdriver to remove the cable. Forcing your finger into the clearance can cause
damage to the PCI card.
1. From the Solaris OS use the cfgadm command to get the component status:
AP_ID is comprised of the IOU number (iou#0 or iou#1) and the PCI cassette slot
number (pci#1, pci#2, pci#3, pci#4)
2. Use the cfgadm command to unconfigure the component from the hardware:
where AP_ID is the IOU and PCI card as shown in the output of cfgadm.
3. Use the cfgadm command to stop supplying power to the component:
where AP_ID is the IOU and PCI card as shown in the output of cfgadm.
4. Use the cfgadm command to confirm the component from the domain is now
disconnected and unconfigured:
