Replacing older Dual Ethernet and Dual SCSI cards

A Dual Ethernet and Dual SCSI card supports ethernet and SCSI connections.

Note:

The older versions of the Dual Ethernet and Dual SCSI cards do not support hot-plug operation. You must shut down the system and turn off power before installing or replacing a card. If you are replacing a newer card that does support hot-plug operation, see Maintaining hot-plug PCI cards on page 62.

To replace older Dual Ethernet and Dual SCSI cards:

1.Log in to the system as root.

2.Enter: cfgadm

This displays the PCI card configuration before you replace a card. Recheck the configuration after you have replaced the card.

3.Enter:

/usr/sbin/shutdown -y -i0 -g0

This shuts down the system.

4.Press and release the front panel power button to turn off the system. Wait for the front panel Power/OK LED to turn off.

5.Turn the key switch to the Forced Off position. See the following figure.
