SCSI PCI Restrictions for OLA/R
Online addition and replacement (OLA/R) of PCI HBAs is available in

This feature allows you to add or replace a failed HBA without having to

online replacement (OLR) apply with these SCSI HBAs:
• A4800A
• A5149A
• A5150A
• A5159A
• A5838A
You can find more information about SCSI HBA OLA/R restrictions by
