PCI-X Technology Hot Installing an Expansion Board To install an expansion board into a PCI-X Hot Plug slot: 1. If the server is installed in the rack, extend the server from the rack. 2. Open the hot-plug door. See "Opening the Hot-Plug Door" in Chapter 3, "Installing Hardware Options." 3. Identify the PCI Hot Plug expansion slot that you want to populate and the PCI Hot Plug button that manages it. CAUTION: Do not attempt this hot-plug operation if your operating system does not provide PCI Hot Plug support or if you do not have the appropriate device drivers installed. Failure to properly execute a hot-plug operation can halt your system. 4. Press the port-colored PCI Hot Plug button or use the PCI Hot Plug Utility to power down the PCI Hot Plug slot. CAUTION: Be sure that the slot LED is off before installing the expansion board.
