Accessory Board Guidelines
The I/O board is under Cover 1 on the top of the LH 3000r and under the left cover of the LH 3000.
l Use the respective NOS software utility to
◊ Ensure the correct software drivers for the PCI board are loaded
◊ Verify correct operation
◊ Shut down power to hot plug slots
CAUTION Do not attempt to install or remove non-hot plug PCI boards with the HP NetServer
in any kind of sleep state, or a system crash or hang may occur. See Sleep States.
l Slots 1, 2, 3, and 4 are non-hot plug slots 5, 6, 7, and 8 are hot plug.
l For optimal performance, add PCI boards to slots 4, 5, and 6, which at 33MHz and 64 bit, and
on the primary bus, are the fastest.
l Consider the boot priority prior to installing accessory boards, but after configuring the HP
NetServer.
l Some accessory board outputs may exceed U.S. National Electrical code (NFPA 70) Class 2 or
power source limits and must use appropriate interconnecting cabling in accordance with the
National Electrical Code. (All Hewlett Packard boards comply with Class 2.)
l You can configure the NetServer to boot from a PCI-based DAC inserted into a PCI slot. Use
the Symbios Configuration Utility to select a different PCI slot when scanning for boot devices.
