See your operating-system documentation to determine if your operating
system supports hot-plug PCI adapters and, if so, how to disable the
hot-plug PCI slot.
Attention LEDs
Each hot-plug PCI slot has an attention LED that is visible from the rear of
the server and one that can be seen from inside the server. These LEDs
have the same meaning; they are duplicated to be visible from outside or
inside the server.
An attention LED flashes approximately once per second when it is on. The
meaning of the attention LEDs is defined by your operating system. See
your operating-system documentation to determine if your operating system
supports hot-plug PCI adapters and, if so, what the attention LEDs indicate.
The following table describes the adapter power and attention LEDs.
