Installing the first HSI/P card or a pair of HSI/P cards

To install the first HSI/P card or a pair of HSI/P cards:

1. Verify that you have a recent CMSADM file system backup before you change card

configurations.

2. Log in to the system as root.

3. Enter:

cfgadm

This displays the PCI card configuration before you add a card. Recheck the
configuration after you have added the card.

4. Enter:

/usr/sbin/shutdown -y -i0 -g0

This shuts down the system.

5. Press and release the front panel power button to turn off the system.

Wait for the front panel Power/OK LED to turn off.

6. Turn the key switch to the Forced Off position. See the following figure.

DANGER:

Be sure to turn the key switch to the Forced Off position before handling any
internal components. Otherwise, it is possible for a user to restart the
system remotely while you are working inside it. The Forced Off position is
the only key switch position that prevents an RSC user from restarting the
system.

7. Turn off the system monitor.

8. Turn off any external SCSI devices, starting with the device that is closest to the

system and working toward the farthest device.
