▼To Extract the Adapter from a Hot Swap Environment

1.Start cPCI hot swap.

%drvconfig -i sghsc

2.As superuser, identify the cPCI card to be removed. You must know the slot number (attachment point ID).

#cfgadm pci

I/O assemblies are indicated by “..sg--..”. The attachment points (board slots) displayed are numbered starting with 0 at the system board side of the cPCI I/O assembly.

3.Detach (unconfigure) the cPCI card to be removed.

#cfgadm -c unconfigure attachment_point

where attachment_point is pcischxxx.

4.Repeat the attachment point list to confirm the board detachment.

#cfgadm pci

5.Check that the blue LED is on.

The Removal OK LED must change from green to amber to signal the unconfigured state. When the Removal OK LED is amber, it is safe to remove the cPCI card.
