System panics if a PCI hot-plug operation is

started while another operation is still in progress

(BugID 4452433)

On Sun Fire 880 systems running the Solaris 8 7/01 operating environment, if you
try to initiate a PCI hot-plug operation while another PCI hot-plug operation is still
in progress,the system may panic. This can happen regardless of whether you use a
hot-plug push button or the Solaris cfgadm command to initiate the operation.
Workaround– Always wait for a hot-plug operation to complete its function before
initiating a new operation.
