Complete the following steps to install an adapter: 1. Review the information in "Safety information" on page 257, Working inside the server with power on, and "Handling static-sensitive devices" on page 80. 2. Use the operating system to disable the Active PCI-X slot; then, insert or remove a hot-plug PCI or PCI-X adapter. Some operating systems do not support the enabling and disabling of a PCI-X slot. If your operating system does not support this function, then turn off the server, and disconnect all external cables and power cords before proceeding. 3. Pull out on the quick release latches on each side of the server; then, pull the server out of its rack enclosure until it stops. 4. Open the top cover. Note: Inside the server there are six PCI-X slots: two 66 MHz, two 100 MHz, and two 133 MHz. Before attempting to install a new adapter, be sure there is an available slot for it. If you need additional PCI-X slots, you can purchase a Remote Expansion Enclosure either from your IBM marketing representative or authorized reseller.
