Chapter 1. Implementing Fibre Channel host adapter cards 17
1. Insert the Service Pack 3 compact disc into the CD-ROM or CD-R drive.
2. Open the README file for instructions on installing Service Pack 3.
In Table 1-5 we show the NUMA-Q system requirements. Support for Copy
Services on PTX V4.5.2 requires a special Technology Pack. You can obtain the
Technology Pack through an IBM sales representative who handles your xSeries
and NUMA-Q purchases.

1.5.3 Installing the IOC-0210-54 adapter card
Perform the following steps to install the IOC-0210-54 adapter card:
1. Contact your IBM SSR to install the IOC-0210-54 adapter card in the ESS.
2. Connect the cable to the ESS port.
The SSR establishes the private LAN connection between both clusters on
the ESS, the Ethernet hub, and the ESS personal computer console.
Preconfigured multimode optical cables are available to connect the ESS to
the NUMA-Q host system. The 8m (24-ft) cable might be required. The way
you connect the cable to the ESS through the Fibre Channel switch depends
on the level of I/O throughput.
For information about connection schemes, see the Fibre Channel
Subsystems Installation Guide at the following Web site:
techdocs.sequent.com/staticpath/shsvccd/start.htm
3. Restart the server.
1.5.4 Configuring the IOC-0210-54 adapter card
