Replacing PCI Boards

The LH 3000 and 3000r NetServers support up to 8 PCI boards. Four of these boards may be of the Hot

Swap type and can be replaced while the system is operating. Removing the left side cover (pedestal

version) or top cover (rack version) can access all boards.

Hot Adding or Replacing Hot-Plug PCI Boards

The PCI Hot-Plug option is NOS-dependent. To use the Hot-Plug option, the PCI board must have a hot-plug

compliant driver and a Hot-Plug Utility for the respective NOS. The Hot-Plug Utility is used to turn power

off/on to the PCI slot, while the HP NetServer continues to operate normally. Refer to the PCI Hot-Plug

Replacement procedures in Information Assistant for the NOS you are using.

NOTE Although the replacement PCI board has the same part number as the card being

removed, it may require a driver update. Check with the manufacturer of the PCI

card.
