9-48 Upgrading Your Server
Notes
Observe the following notes when 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 may 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.
PCI slot number "1C" is assigned to the riser card for low-profile PCI boards, and "1B" is assigned to the riser card
for full-height PCI boards.
The system detects the boot devices in order of the PCI bus slots 1B (full-height PCI board) and then 1C (low-profile
PCI board).
The PCI devices of the same type (including onboard PCI device) may be recognized in different order from that
described above, depending on the OS or on the RAID System BIOS Utility. Check the slot location of the PCI
device using the PCI bus number, device number and function number shown in the table below.
Bus number Device number Function number
Onboard NIC1 1 0 0
Onboard NIC2 1 0 1
Slot 1C 40 0 X
Slot 1B* 10 0 X
Slot 1B 11 0 X
* On certain PCI devices, other bus number may be assigned..
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, it may be difficult 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. Be very careful
for the screwdriver not to damage the LAN port or other ports.
If a bootable PCI board (e.g., a RAID Controller, SCSI controller, or LAN card) is additionally installed, the boot
priority is changed. After the additional installation, start the BIOS SETUP utility, select [Boot] and set the new boot
priority.
Contact your service representative for the recommended optional PCI boards.
