Installing HyperFabric Adapters

	Online Addition and Replacement—HP-UX 11i Only
	Online Addition and Replacement (OLAR) allows PCI I/O cards, adapters or
	controllers to be replaced or added to HP 9000 systems, without the need for completely
	shutting down and rebooting the system, or adversely affecting other system
	components. This feature is only available on HP 9000 systems that are designed to
	support OLAR. The system hardware uses the per-slot power control combined with OS
	support to enable this feature.
	Not all add-in cards have this capability, but over time many cards will be gaining this
	capability.
	The latest HyperFabric Release Notes contains information about which HP 9000
	systems and HyperFabric adapters OLAR is supported for.
IMPORTANT	At this time V-Class and Superdome systems are not intended for access by users. HP
	recommends that these systems only be opened by a qualified HP engineer. Failure to
	observe this requirement can invalidate any support agreement or warranty to which
	the owner might otherwise be entitled.
