Replacing
a
Hot-Pluggable
PCI
Adapter
Attention:
The
Linux
operating
system
does
not
support
these
hot-pluggable
procedures.
Also,
Linux
does
not
support
hot-plugging
any
hot-pluggable
PCI
adapters.
Systems
with
Linux
installed
on
one
or
more
partitions
must
be
shutdown
and
powered
off
before
replacing
any
PCI
adapter
assigned
to
a
Linux
partition.
Follow
the
non-hot-pluggable
adapter
procedures
when
replacing
a
PCI
adapter
in
any
partition
with
Linux
installed.
Note:
Use
this
procedure
only
when
you
are
replacing
one
adapter
with
an
identical
adapter.
If
you
are
replacing
an
adapter
with
an
adapter
that
is
not
identical
to
the
adapter
that
was
removed,
go
to
“Removing
a
Hot-Pluggable
PCI
Adapter”
on
page
65
and
“Installing
a
New
Hot-Pluggable
PCI
Adapter”
on
page
61.
To
replace
an
adapter,
do
the
following:
1.
Determine
the
slot
from
which
you
are
removing
the
adapter.
2.
Ensure
that
any
processes
or
applications
that
might
use
the
adapter
are
stopped.
Note:
Removing
a
hot-pluggable
PCI
adapter
requires
the
system
administrator
to
take
the
PCI
adapter
offline
before
performing
any
PCI
adapter
hot-plug
procedures.
Before
taking
an
adapter
offline,
the
devices
attached
to
the
adapter
must
also
be
taken
offline.
This
action
prevents
a
service
representative
or
user
from
causing
an
unexpected
outage
for
system
users.
For
additional
information
about
taking
an
adapter
offline
or
removing
it
from
the
system
configuration,
