Setup of Optional PCI Board
To enable the fault-tolerant feature of the optional device, the identical PCI boards must be
installed to the slots with the same number in CPU/IO module#0 and CPU/IO module#1.
The BIOS settings need to be modified when mounting some optional PCI boards. To change
the BIOS settings, start the BIOS Setup Utility to change the [Boot Monitoring] configuration in
[Server] – [Monitoring Configuration]. See “Monitoring Configuration” on page 4-25 for more
details.
For the supported connecting devices, contact your sales agent.
