Preparing a hot-plug card for removal

Before you remove a hot-plug card, you must verify that the devices residing on the card are not currently in use. In most cases, the card you are removing is faulty and not operating, but you must still first check to make sure the card is not in use by the operating system. With the SunSwift or Dual FastEthernet and Dual SCSI card, do not use the external tape drive, if installed, when removing the card. Make sure the tape drive does not have a tape installed.

To prepare a hot-plug card for removal:

1.Enter: cfgadm

This displays the PCI card configuration before you remove a card. Check the Condition column for cards that are displaying failed, failing, or unusable status.
