Major components of the Netfinity 7600 server
The orange color on components and labels in your server identifies hot-swap or hotplug components. This means that you can install or remove the components while
the system is running, provided that your system is configured to support this
function. For complete information about installing or removing a hot- swap or hotplug component, see the information provided in the procedures in this document.
The blue color on components and labels indicates touch points where a component
can be gripped, a latch moved, and so on.

Chapter 2. Installing options
This chapter provides the basic information needed to install hardware options in
your server. This section is for all users, but is written with the experienced user in
mind. If you need more detailed installation information, see the User’s Reference on
the IBM Netfinity Documentation CD.
Working inside a server with power on
Your server supports hot plug, hot add, and hot swap devices and is designed to
operate safely while turned on with the cover removed. Follow these guidelines when
you work inside a server that is turned on:
• Avoid loo se-fitting clothing on your forearms. Button long-sleeved shirts before
working inside the server; do not wear cufflinks while you are working inside
the server.
• Do not allow your necktie or scarf to hang inside the server.
• Remove jewelry, such as bracelets, necklaces, rings, and loose-fitting wrist
watches.
• Remove items from your shirt pocket (such as pens or pencils) that could fall
into the server as you lean over it.
• Take care to avoid dropping any metallic objects, such as paper clips, hair pins,
or screws, into the server.
Installing adapters
This section describes how to install hot-plug PCI adapters. Before you continue with
the adapter-installation procedure, review the following:
• Slots 1 and 2 support 3.3 V and universal non-hot-plug PCI adapters only.
• Slots 3–6 support 5.0V and universal PCI adapters.
Note: Universal PCI adapters support both 3.3V and 5.0V operation.
• The system scans PCI slots 1 through 6 to assign system resources; then, the
system starts (boots) the PCI devices in the following order: processor and I/O
board devices, slots 1 and 2, and then slots 3 through 6.
• You ca n install hot-plug PCI adapters in PCI slots 3-6. You can also install nonhot-plug PCI adapters in these slots.
