PCI Hot Plug Support

PCI Hot Plug involves the insertion and removal of PCI adapters

from a system without interrupting the normal operation or

powering down the whole system. PCI Hot Plug functions by

disabling power to PCI slots where PCI Hot Plug capable adapters

will be inserted or removed. To provide PCI Hot Plug functionality,

the installed operating system, the motherboard, and the device

driver for the PCI adapter must all support the PCI Hot Plug

capability.

The Adaptec Fibre Card 9110G device driver for Windows NT 4.0

supports the PCI hot swap/replacement capability on system

platforms that support PCI Hot Plug. Check your system

documentation to determine if PCI Hot Plug is supported.

Caution: Do not insert or remove the Adaptec Fibre Card

9110G into or out of PCI slots with power enabled to the PCI

slot. If PCI Hot Plug support is provided by your system

hardware and software, then follow the procedures for

insertion and removal of Hot Plug capable PCI adapters as

defined by your system documentation.
