Replacing a HyperFabric Adapter
If OLAR is supported for the HP 9000 system and the HyperFabric adapter, and you
want to do OLR, see “Online Replacement (OLR)” on page 45. The HP HyperFabric
Release Note contains information about which HP 9000 systems and HyperFabric
adapters OLAR is supported for.
If you cannot or do not want to do OLR to replace a HyperFabric adapter, follow these
steps:
Step 1. Stop HyperFabric on the node where the faulty adapter is installed (see “Stopping
HyperFabric” on page 110).
Step 2. Depending on the type of HP 9000 the adapter is in, follow the steps in the HP 9000’s
documentation for installing the adapter.
NOTE When you replace a HyperFabric adapter, you do not have to re-install the HyperFabric
software.
Step 3. Start HyperFabric on the HP 9000 (see “Starting HyperFabric” on page 95).
