Installing an adapter The following notes describe the types of adapters that your server supports and other information that you must consider when installing an adapter: v The following illustration shows the location and bus speeds of the PCI-X expansion slots on the PCI-X board. PCI-X slot 4 (100 MHz) PCI-X slot 5 (133 MHz) PCI-X slot 3 (100 MHz) PCI-X slot 2 (66 MHz) PCI-X slot 6 (133 MHz) Attention LED Power LED PCI-X slot 1 (66 MHz) v Locate the documentation that comes with the adapter, and follow those instructions in addition to the instructions in this section. If you need to change the switch settings or jumper settings on your adapter, follow the instructions that come with the adapter. v Video adapters are not supported. v Some full-length adapters have extension handles or brackets installed. Before installing the adapter, you must remove the extension handle or bracket. v Your server supports six hot-plug 64-bit adapters in the expansion slots on the PCI-X board, as shown in the following table. Bus A (2) B (9) C (7) D (5) Slot Supported adapter speed (MHz) 1 66 2 66 3 100 (133 if slot 4 is empty) 4 100 (133 if slot 3 is empty) 5 133 6 133 92 IBM xSeries 450 Type 8688: Hardware Maintenance Manual and Troubleshooting Guide
