Note Avoid touching the components and gold-edge connectors on the adapter. 6. Place the adapter, component-side up, on a flat, static-protective surface. 7. Set any jumpers or switches as described by the adapter manufacturer. 8. Install the adapter: a. Carefully grasp the adapter 7 by its top edge or upper corners, and align it with the expansion slot on the I/O board. b. Press the adapter firmly into the expansion slot. Attention When you install an adapter in the server, be sure that it is completely and correctly seated in the connector before you apply power. Incomplete insertion might cause damage to server components or the adapter. c. Refer to the illustration in "Installing a Hot-Plug PCI Adapter" on page 176 for operation of the adapter retention latch on the end of the slot near the rear of the server. d. Lower the tab over the adapter. Rotate the adapter retention latch until it snaps in place. e. Connect any cables to the adapter. 9. If you have other options to install or remove, do so now; otherwise, go to "Completing the Installation" on page 97. Verifying Compatibility between Network Adapters and Device Drivers: Your server supports several types of network adapters. If you are having trouble with the installation or operation of a network adapter or network operating system, ensure that the network-adapter device driver supports multiple processors. Refer to your network-adapter documentation for additional information about adapter compatibility requirements. Netfinity 7000-M10 - Type 8680 181
