Chapter 2. Installing optional devices

Note:

Before you install optional hardware devices, make sure that the server is

working correctly. Start the server, and make sure that the operating system starts,
if an operating system is installed, or that a 19990305 error code is displayed,
indicating that an operating system was not found but the server is otherwise
working correctly. If the server is not working correctly, see the

Problem

Determination and Service Guide

on the IBM

Documentation

CD for information

about how to run diagnostics.

This chapter provides detailed instructions for installing optional hardware devices in
the server.
