holes in the bracket.

Installing the Adapter
To install the adapter:
1. Turn off the computer if hotplug is not supported on the server. See your server
documentation to see if it supports Hot Plug/Hot Swap of PCIe adapter cards.
2. Remove the computer case.
3. Remove the blank panel from an empty PCIe bus slot. See “Preparing the HBA for
Installation” on page 8 to change the brackets if needed. Otherwise, proceed to
“Attaching Media” on page 11.
