What's New in This Version On Line Addition and Replacement (OLAR) On Line Addition and Replacement (OLAR) PCI Card OLAR Concepts Introduction The letters O, L, A and R stand for On Line Addition [and] Replacement. This, of course, refers to the ability of a PCI I/O card to be replaced (replaced and/or added) to an HP-UX computer system designed to support this feature without the need for completely shutting down, then re-booting the system or adversely affecting other system components. The system hardware uses the per-slot power control combined with operating system support to enable this feature. IMPORTANT Certain "Classes" of hardware are not intended for access by users. At this time this includes V-Class and Superdome systems. HP recommends that these systems only be opened by a qualified HP Engineer. Failure to observe this requirement can invalidate any support agreement or warranty to which the owner might otherwise be entitled. Important Terms and Concepts The addition or replacement of an OLAR-compatible card may be done in either one of two ways: 1. Using the SAM utility. 2. Issuing command-line commands using rad. If detailed information about the use of either of these two procedures is required, you should refer to the following document: Configuring HP-UX For Peripherals, HP Part Number B2355-90698 This document may be ordered from HP, or you may view, download and print it from the following website: www.docs.hp.com 12
