Overview of the IOU

This section provides an overview of IOUs and describes their mounting locations.

Each IOU consists of one I/O board (IOB), eight PCI slots, and up to four hard disk
drives (HDD). A PCI card or link card is mounted in a PCI slot by using a PCI
cassette. For slots in which no PCI card or link card is mounted, a filler panel may
occupy the slot. When an IOU is replaced, these mounted components (PCI
cassettes, PCI cards, HDDs, and other components) must be remounted. These
mounted parts must be remounted at the same locations in the new IOU as their
original pre-swap mounting locations.
