Installing Adapter Hardware
The Online Addition and Replacement feature, OLAR for HP-UX 11i v3, or OL* for HP-UX 11i
v2 and later HP-UX releases, enables PCI host bus adapters to be added or replaced without
shutting down and rebooting the system, and without adversely affecting other system
components. The system hardware uses slot-specific power control, combined with HP-UX
operating system support, to enable these features.
Confirm whether OLAR or OL* are supported on the system in which you plan to install a Fibre
Channel adapter. See the HP Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter Support Matrix, at: http://
docs.hp.com/en/netcom.html#Fibre%20Channel
For detailed instructions on using OLAR on HP-UX 11i v3, see Chapter 2 of Configuring HP-UX
for Peripherals, which can be accessed at: http://docs.hp.com/en/hpux11i.html
For detailed instructions on using OL* on HP-UX 11i v2 and later HP-UX releases, see the Interface
Card OL* Support Guide and the Interface Card OL* Support Matrix at: http://docs.hp.com/en/
