Hot Plug

The system’s disk bays are designed to permit disk drive removal and insertion while the system is powered on. Hot-plugtechnology significantly increases the system’s serviceability and availability, by providing the ability to:

■Add hardware dynamically to enable the system to handle an increasingly larger work load, perform load balancing, and improve performance of a running system

■Remove and replace faulty hardware with minimal system service disruption

For more information about hot-pluggable disk drives, see “About Internal Disk Drives” on page 91.
