■ Use the
hotplug
command to bring the card offline:
a. List all devices in the device tree, including PCIe cards:
# hotplug list -cv
This command lists dynamically reconfigurable hardware resources and shows
their operational status. In this case, look for the status of the PCIe card you plan to
remove. This information is listed in the
State
column.
For example:
# hotplug list -cv
