9. Under Main Menu, press 11 to write the changes to the NVRAM.

10. Also under Main Menu, press 12 to quit and go back to the EFI shell.

• Some PCIe I/O backplanes do not support PCIe2 (5.0 GT/s) cards on slots 3 and 4

PCIe I/O backplanes with product number AD295A #200 on rx3600, AD296A #200 on rx6600,

and upgrade product number AD298A for both rx3600 and rx6600 Integrity servers, do not

support PCIe2 (5.0 GT/s) cards on slots 3 and 4. PCIe2 cards will not be seen when seated

in these slots.

PCIe I/O backplanes with the product numbers AD295A #300, AD296A #300, and AD230A,

do support PCIe2 cards on slots 3 and 4. PCIe2 cards will be seen, and will run in PCIe mode

(2.5 GT/s) when seated in these slots.

Both backplanes will be able to support PCIe2 cards running in PCIe mode on slots 5 and

To determine the installed backplane using the FRU ID:

1. Establish a telnet session with the iLO MP.

2. Logon to the iLO MP using the Admin password.

3. Type CM to enter the Command Menu.

4. Type DF to enter the Display FRU Information Menu.

5. Type S to display a list of specific FRUs.

6. Type 05 for the I/O Assembly FRU.

— For AD295A #200, AD296A #200, and AD298A, the Product Name displays as: 10

Slot PCI-E IOBP

— For AD295A #300, AD296A #300, and AD230A, the Product Name displays as: 10

Slot PCI-E 1.1 IOBP

• If a system is low on available contiguous memory, an online addition can fail

The failure will be seen with messages similar to the following:

#sd10vp3 :/> olrad -A 8-0-1-5

Activity : Start of Post Add

Target slot : 8-0-1-5

Addition of the card in progress...

[ NOTE: Killing or otherwise aborting this olrad command may not cancel the Card Add operation. ]

5/0/6/0/0/0/0 fc PCIe SerialBus (10772532)

Error : ioscan failed! card not claimed

Target slot : 8-0-1-5

Error : On line ADD failed !! Attention LED may be left in blinking state

Target slot : 8-0-1-5

-------------------------------------------------------

Additionally, syslog will contain messages similar to the following:

vmunix: FCD: Allocate shared memory failed, error code = -1

vmunix: init of hardware not successful. id=10772532 and my_isc=2

Corrective action: Retry the operation at a time when the system has more free memory

available.

• DLKM infrastructure must be installed

A complete Dyamically Loadable Kernel Module (DLKM) infrastructure is required for

FibrChanl-01 B.11.31.0803. This requires that the following kernel patches be installed:
