Slot priority
The slot priority for all adapters is P1-C1, P1-C4, P1-C2, P1-C5, P1-C3, P1-C6, P1-C7, P1-C8, P1-C9, and
P1-C10.
There are three I/O chips. Each I/O chip controls three or four PCI host bridges (PHBs) and each PCIe
slot connects directly to a PHB.
v
One I/O chip controls slots P1-C1, P1-C2, and P1-C3.
v
A second I/O chip controls slots P1-C4, P1-C5, and P1-C6.
v
A third I/O chips controls slots P1-C7, P1-C8, P1-C9, and P1-C10.
For best performance, fill P1-C1, P1-C4, P1-C2, P1-C5, P1-C3, and P1-C6 first with the highest bandwidth
adapters. Then, fill the remaining slots.
Determining the best place to install your adapter
You can use the placement guidelines and reference tables in this section to determine the best place in
which to install your adapter on systems running the IBM i operating system.
Finding the current system configuration in IBM i
You can use the System Service Tools in the IBM i operating system to find the current system
configuration.
