Upgrading Your Server 9-31
Notes
Observe the following notes on installing/removing a PCI board:
Do not touch the terminals of the riser cards and the leads of electronic components with
your bare hand. Fingerprints and dust left on them cause the server to malfunction due to a
connection failure or damage to the leads.
A riser card is designed for installing only low-profile PCI boards or full-height PCI
boards. Before installing a PCI board, make sure of the card specification.
If any board is installed in the slot next to the component side of N8103-80F/81F disk
array controller, you cannot connect the LED relay cable coming with the server between
LED connector on disk array controller and DAC LED connector on mother board. (The
DISK ACCESS LED on the front panel cannot indicate the access status of hard disk
drives connected to the disk array controller.)
The system searches for the PCI board in the following order:
PCI Slot 1C → 2C → 3C → 1B → 2B → 3B
When N8116-02 is installed:
PCI Slot 1C → 2C → 3C → 1B → 3B → 2B
The PCI devices of the same type (including onboard PCI device) may be recognized in
different order from that described above, depending on OS or disk array BIOS utility.
Check the slot location of PCI device by PCI bus number, device number and function
number shown in the table below.
Bus number Device number Function number
Onboard NIC1 2 1 0
Onboard NIC2 2 1 1
Slot 1C 2 2 X
Slot 2C 2 5 X
Slot 3C 2 6 X
Onboard SCSI Ch A (backup
file/ext.)
23 0
Onboard SCSI Ch B (HDD) 2 3 1
Slot 1B 3 * 7 X
Slot 2B 3 * 8 X
Slot 3B 3 * 9 X
* The bus number may be 4 or greater depending on the board installed in Slot 1C,
2C, or 3C.
Set "Disabled" for the optional ROM of a LAN device not to be booted by using the BIOS
SETUP utility.
If an additional LAN device is installed in slot 3C or 3B, it is hard to push the catch of the
connector with your finger that is connected to the LAN port. Disconnect the connector
pushing the catch with a standard screwdriver. At this time, be very careful for the
screwdriver not to damage the LAN port or other ports.
