Note: It is useful to start the IBM ServeRAID Hot Replace Wizard from a remote
installation when the server with the failed controller does not have a
monitor.
Installing the ServeRAID controller
During the installation, you might need a small, flat-blade screwdriver and the
documentation that comes with your server.
To install the ServeRAID-4 controller:
1. Review “Safety” on page iii and the Safety Information book provided with your
server.
Note: Some IBM servers support Active PCI features, which allow you to
install or remove PCI controllers without turning off the server. If your
server model provides Active PCI support and you are using Windows
NT, Windows 2000, or NetWare 5.x, you do not need to turn off your
server to install this controller. This operation is referred to as a hot-add
operation. Review the following information before performing this
operation on a ServeRAID-4 and your server:
v
Refer to the information that is provided with your server to determine
if your model supports these features.
v
Refer to the documentation that is provided with your operating
system for using these features.
v
Refer to “Using a ServeRAID controller in a server with Active
™
PCI
features” on page 9.
v
Refer to the documentation that is provided with the IBM Hot Plug for
Windows NT 4.0 package, if you intend to perform a hot-add
operation using Windows NT 4.0.
2. If your server model does not support Active PCI, turn off the server and
disconnect all power cords and cables from the server. If your server model
does support Active PCI, go to step 7 on page 11.
Statement 5
CAUTION:
The power control button on the device and the power switch on the power supply do
not turn off the electrical current supplied to the device. The device also might have
more than one power cord. To remove all electrical current from the device, ensure
that all power cords are disconnected from the power source.

3. Remove the server cover and locate an empty PCI expansion slot for the
controller. Choose a slot that is farthest from other installed components, such
as the microprocessor. If necessary, see your server documentation for more
detailed information about the expansion slots.
