IBM H80 Series manual Device Specifies the task to run Option Under Task

The Replace/Remove a Device Attached to an SES Device				function lists	all
populated hot-swap slots that are available for removal or					replacement	of	the
devices. After	a slot	is	selected, the	device populating	that slot is Unconfigured; th
the power is	removed	from	that slot. If	the Unconfigure	operation	fails,	it is possib

that the device is in use by another application. In this case, the customer or sys

administrator

must

be notified

to

deactivate

the device. If the Unconfigure operation

is successful, the visual indicator for

the

selected

slot is

set to

the Remove state

After the device is removed

or replaced, the visual indicator, if available for the

selected

slot,

is

set

to

the Normal state,

and

power

is

restored.

Note: Be

sure

that

no

other

host is using the device before you remove it.

The Configure

Added/Replaced

Devices

function

runs

the

configuration

manager

on the parent adapters that

had

child

devices

added or removed. This function

ensures

that

the

devices

in

the

configuration database

are

correctly

configured.

Standalone Diagnostics has restrictions on using the SCSI Hot Plug Manager. For example:

ŸReplacement devices must be exactly the same type of device as the device being replaced.

ŸNew devices may not be added unless a device of the same FRU part number already exists in the system, because the configuration information for the new

device is not known after the Standalone Diagnostics are booted.

You can run this task directly from the command line. See the following command syntax:

diag -d device-T"identifyRemove"

OR diag [-c] -d device-T"identifyRemove -a [identifyremove]"

Flag	Description
-c	Run	the task without			displaying	menus. Only	command	line prompts	are
	used. This		flag is		only applicable when		running an	option such	as identify
	or	remove.
-d	Indicates		the	SCSI	device.
-T	Specifies the task to run.
-a	Specifies		the	option	under the	task.
