This section gives the procedure for installing a hot-plug PCI adapter. If your
operating system supports hot-plug PCI adapters, you can replace a failing hot-plug
PCI adapter with a new adapter of the same type without turning off power to the
server. If your operating system and adapter also support the hot-add feature, you
can install a new adapter without turning off the power to the server.
Before you begin:
v Review the information in “Before you begin” on page 50 and “Working inside the
server with the power on” on page 50
v Read the documentation that comes with your adapter for any special
requirements or restrictions.
v Read the documentation that comes with your operating system.
