system to install a disk drive or solid-state drive with the power turned on in Linux
Learn about the steps you must complete before you install a disk drive or solid-state drive (SSD) in a
system with the Linux operating system or Linux logical partition that controls the drive location
powered on.
If you are installing SSDs, review the configuration rules and then return here. For details, see
“Solid-state drive configuration rules” on page 104.
To prepare the system to install a disk drive or solid-state drive, complete the following steps:
1.
Ensure that the software that is required to support the feature is installed on your system. For
information about software prerequisites, see the IBM Prerequisite website (http://www-
912.ibm.com/e_dir/eServerPrereq.nsf). If the required system firmware, software, or fix packs are not
installed on your system, go to the Fix Central website (http://www.ibm.com/support/fixcentral/) to
download and install them before you continue.
2.
Determine the slot in which you want to install a disk drive or an SSD. The disk drive and SSD slots
are in the front of a system. More SSD slots are also available in an expanded function system.
Figure 28 and Figure 29 on page 31 show the disk drive and solid-state drive locations and service
indicators. Service indicators are located above the latch handle on the disk drives.
