Attention: Static electricity that is released to internal server components when the server is powered-on might cause the server to halt, which could result in the loss of data. To avoid this potential problem, always use an electrostatic-discharge wrist strap or other grounding system when working inside the server with the power on. To install a hot-plug PCI adapter, complete the following steps. Note: For hot-pluggable adapters, make sure that the PCI hot-plug device driver is installed. 1. Read the safety information beginning on page v and "Installation guidelines" on page 20. 2. If the adapter is not hot-pluggable, turn off the server and peripheral devices, and disconnect the power cords and all external cables. 3. Remove the server cover (see "Removing the cover and bezel" on page 22) and determine which PCI expansion slot you will use for the adapter.

See the documentation that comes with the adapter for instructions for setting jumpers or switches and for cabling. Note: Route adapter cables before you install the adapter. 5. Install the adapter: a. Open the blue PCI retaining bar by lifting the front edge. b. Push the orange adapter retention latch toward the rear of the server and open the tab. The power LED for the slot turns off. c. Remove the expansion-slot cover. 26 IBM System x3850 Type 8864: User's Guide
