1.2 Extracting the LSI7202CP
The LSI7202CP is a component that you can extract from a hot-swap
compliant system without interrupting the operation of the system. You
can also extract the adapter if installing it in a cold environment after you
power down the system.
You must determine whether you want to perform a cold extraction of the
adapter or a hot extraction. In a cold extraction, you must shut down the
system’s operating system and power down the system before extracting
the adapter. In a hot-swap extraction, you may be required to enter
software commands before and after the extraction to detach the adapter
from the system correctly.
Note : The following procedures provide a general overview of the
tasks needed to prepare for either a hot or cold extraction.
For the specific procedures required for your system, refer
to the documentation that shipped with your system.
1.2.1 Cold Environment Extraction
Before extracting your adapter, ensure that all significant application
activity on the server has stopped. To extract the LSI7202CP, follow
these steps.
Step 1. Refer to the system’s documentation for the complete power
down procedure and location of the power switch.
Step 2. Press the power switch to power down the system.
Step 3. Verify that the system’s power LED is OFF, which indicates that
the system is completely powered off.
Step 4. Extract the LSI7202CP after the system has been shut down
and powered off.
1.2.2 Hot Environment Extraction
Refer to your system’s hardware user’s manual for complete instructions
regarding hot environment extraction.
