6.1.1 Active/Hot Removal Workflow of a PCIe Card
6.1.1 Active/Hot Removal Workflow of a PCIe Card
Before removing a PCIe card, see "Precautions for PCIe card removal" in "7.3 Precautions for FRU Reduction."
Table 6-1 shows the workflow for active/hot removal of a PCIe card using the PCI Hot Plug function.
Work Order | Task | Reference |
---|---|---|
1 | Checking the operating condition of the system | "9.2.1 Checking the Operation Status of Physical Partitions and Logical Domains" |
2 | Checking the usage status of the PCIe card to be removed | "9.2.2 Checking the Assignment Status of I/O Devices" |
3 | Releasing the I/O resources assigned to the PCIe card to be removed | "9.3 Releasing I/O Resources From a Logical Domain" |
4 | Confirming that you can release the PCIe card to be removed | "9.2.1 Checking the Operation Status of Physical Partitions and Logical Domains" |
5 | Releasing the PCIe card from the system | "9.4 Enabling the Removal of Hardware" |
6 | Checking the operating condition of the physical partition and logical domains (*1) | "9.2.1 Checking the Operation Status of Physical Partitions and Logical Domains" |
7 | Saving logical domain configuration information | "9.1.1 Saving Logical Domain Configuration Information" |
8 | Switching the mode switch on the OPNL to Service | "2.3.2 OPNL Control Function" |
9 | Removing the PCIe card from the SPARC M12-2/M12-2S | "12.3.1 Enabling the Removal of a PCIe Card" |
10 | Removing the PCIe card from the PCICS | "12.3.2 Removing a PCIe Card or PCIe Card Filler" |
11 | Installing a PCIe card filler in the PCICS from which the PCIe card was removed, and installing the PCICS in the SPARC M12-2/M12-2S | "12.4.1 Installing a PCIe Card or PCIe Card Filler" |
12 | Switching the mode switch on the OPNL to Locked | "2.3.2 OPNL Control Function" |
*1 Reassign I/O resources to logical domains as required. For details, see "Chapter 3 Operations for Domain Configuration" in the Fujitsu SPARC M12 and Fujitsu M10/SPARC M10 Domain Configuration Guide. |
