1. Hot-plug operation for a PCI card requires that the card have detach-safe drivers. If the card does not have
detach-safe drivers, the system must be shut down to add, remove, or replace the card.
2. The computer supports a maximum of four ethernet cards. The optional ethernet cards can be the FastEthernet,
Quad GigaSwift, and single Gigabit ethernet cards.
3. The computer supports a maximum of two HSI/P cards. The first card must be in Slot 3. CMS R12 and later does not
support HSI/P cards and X.25.
4. Some models of the SCSI cards support hot-plug operation, but Avaya recommends that you replace those cards
while the system is powered down.
