2.If the status of the slot is not “empty” or “disconnected”, type:

#cfgadm -c disconnect sysctrl#:slot#

where the sysctrl# = 0 for the Enterprise 10000 and slot#= the slot available for the adapter. For example, if you were installing the adapter into slot #3 on an Enterprise 10000, you would type the following:

#cfgadm -c disconnect sysctrl0:3

3.Physically insert the adapter into the slot and look for an acknowledgement on the console, such as, “name board inserted into slot3.”

After the adapter is inserted, the states and conditions should become:

Receptacle state—Disconnected

Occupant state—Unconfigured

Condition—Unknown

Any other states or conditions should be considered an error.

4.Connect any peripheral cables and interface modules to the adapter.

5.Connect the cables to the card and to an Ethernet network.

6.Configure the adapter with the following command:

#cfgadm -v -c configure sysctrl#:slot#

This command should both connect and configure the receptacle. Verify with the cfgadm command.

The states and conditions for a connected and configured attachment point should be:

Receptacle state—Connected

Occupant state—Configured

Condition—OK
