v
You
can
install
both
PCI
and
PCI-X
adapters
on
the
same
bus.
However,
if
you
install
a
PCI
adapter
and
a
PCI-X
adapter
on
the
same
bus,
the
PCI-X
features
of
the
PCI-X
adapter
will
be
disabled,
and
the
adapter
will
function
as
a
PCI
adapter.
v
You
can
install
PCI
or
PCI-X
adapters
of
speeds
faster
than
what
is
labeled
for
a
particular
PCI-X
bus.
For
example,
if
you
install
two
133
MHz
adapters
into
slots
that
are
labeled
as
100
MHz
slots,
the
adapters
will
operate
at
100
MHz.
v
If
you
install
a
33
MHz
and
a
66
MHz
adapter
on
the
same
bus,
the
bus
speed
will
match
that
of
the
slowest
adapter.
v
If
a
single
133
MHz
adapter
is
installed
on
PCI-X
bus
B
(slots
3
and
4)
and
the
other
slot
on
PCI-X
bus
B
is
empty,
the
adapter
will
operate
at
133
MHz.
v
The
server
scans
PCI-X
slots
in
the
following
order:
the
xSeries
450
integrated
devices
are
scanned
first;
then,
PCI-X
slots
1,
2,
6,
5,
3,
and
4.
If
an
RXE-100
enclosure
is
attached
to
an
xSeries
450
server,
the
scan
order
is
as
follows:
the
xSeries
450
integrated
devices
are
scanned
first;
then,
PCI-X
slots
1,
2,
6,
5,
3,
and
4;
then,
the
RXE-100
PCI
slots
11,
12,
9,
10,
7,
8,
17,
18,
15,
16,
13,
and
14.
v
Your
server
supports
3.3
V
and
universal
adapters;
it
does
not
support
5.0
V
adapters.
Complete
the
following
steps
to
install
an
adapter:
1.
Read
the
safety
information
beginning
on
page
197
and
“Installation
guidelines”
on
page
77.
Attention:
When
you
handle
static-sensitive
devices,
take
precautions
to
avoid
damage
from
static
electricity.
For
details
about
handling
these
devices,
see
“Handling
static-sensitive
devices”
on
page
78.
2.
Disable
the
PCI-X
slot
through
your
operating
system
before
you
insert
or
remove
a
PCI
or
PCI-X
adapter.
Note:
Some
operating
systems
do
not
support
the
enabling
and
disabling
of
a
PCI-X
slot.
If
your
operating
system
does
not
support
this
function,
turn
off
the
server
and
peripheral
devices,
and
disconnect
the
power
cords
and
all
external
devices
from
the
back
of
the
server
before
proceeding.
3.
Open
the
top
cover.
4.
Follow
the
cabling
instructions,
if
any,
that
come
with
the
adapter.
Route
the
adapter
cables
before
you
install
the
adapter.
5.
Follow
the
instructions
that
come
with
the
adapter
to
set
jumpers
or
switches,
if
any.
