Configuring Ethernet PCI Adapters

6.Click Apply to process and save the changes.

7.If you are not physically replacing the Ethernet PCI adapters that you removed, update the Ethernet address of the team at this time. See “Updating a Team’s Ethernet Address” on page 2-32.

If you intend to physically replace the adapters you removed, complete the following procedure.

To physically replace adapters in a team

1.In systems with hot-pluggable enclosures, if you intend to maintain network connectivity while removing an enclosure, verify that all active Ethernet PCI adapters in the enclosure are teamed with adapters in another enclosure. See “Locating Ethernet PCI Adapters” on page 2-15to determine the location of Ethernet PCI adapters in the system.

2.Click OK to exit PROSet.

3.Physically remove the Ethernet PCI adapters from the system and install the new adapters. For more information about removing and replacing adapters, see the operation and maintenance guide for your system, as listed in Table 1-2.

N O T E

If you intend to use the old Ethernet PCI adapters in other systems, do not install them in other systems until you reset the Ethernet address of the team (when you reach step 5 of “Adding Ethernet PCI Adapters to a Team”).

4.Start the PROSet utility (see “Starting PROSet” on page 2-)7.

5.Remove the entries for the Ethernet PCI adapters that you physically removed from the system. The entries should have an icon with an X to indicate that these adapters are missing (Figure 2-17).

For each adapter you want to remove, right-click the adapter entry and select Remove Adapter. When you are finished, click Apply to process the changes.
