Installing a Core I/O Card
The Core I/O card for Superdome Precision Architecture-Reduced Instruction Set Computing (PA-RISC)
servers is an HP-designed multi-function (1x) Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) card containing a
10/100Base-T LAN (device 1) and three RS-232 serial ports (device 0). One of the three serial ports is required
by every partition in order to communicate using console functions, in conjunction with the Guardian Service
Processor (GSP), via the sideband connector. Like the I/O subsystem, the Core I/O card is a mandatory
component for bringing up a partition.
To install the Core I/O card, DC power to the card cage must be turned off. Refer to “Installing a PCI I/O Card
While the Cell is Off ” on page 120.
Locating the Core I/O Slot
Core I/O cards can be installed only in slot 0 of a 12-slot PCI card cage. A tab on the bottom of the bulkhead’s
metal electromagnetic interference (EMI) shield prevents full insertion into any other slot. Slot 0 has a
special notch to allow full insertion and an additional sideband connector (shown in Figure 6-4) required by
some special functions also incorporated into the Core I/O card.
