PCI-X Technology PCI-X Hot Plug Technology HP ProLiant ML530 Generation 2 servers support PCI-X Hot Plug technology. PCI-X Hot Plug Features PCI-X Hot Plug and the server's operating system work together to enable the following hot-plug operations: • Hot replacement of expansion boards You can replace a failed expansion board with an identical expansion board without powering down the server. • Hot addition of expansion boards You can install new PCI expansion boards in previously empty slots without powering down the server. • Hot upgrade of expansion boards You can replace an expansion board with a different expansion board without powering down the server. PCI-X Hot Plug features enable you to remove, upgrade, and add PCI or PCI-X expansion boards without powering down the server by either using the PCI Hot Plug button or the PCI Hot Plug Utility software. Any PCI adapter can be placed in a PCI Hot Plug slot. However, PCI Hot Plug device drivers and operating system support are required to enable the PCI Hot Plug feature.
