How to on-line add (OLA) a J3525A PCI card using SMH
NOTE: On-line addition will recognize and claim the interface card only if the X.25/9000
software is already loaded on the system. Also check if the appropriate J3525A drivers are loaded
in the kernel.
1. Read the information (below) in this step. An understanding of this section is important in order
for you to make the correct decision later in the procedure.
Enter the SMH I/O Cards area and look for a slot prior to inserting the card.
• You will see one or more entries marked “empty slot”, one of which you will choose to
house the new card.
• SMH will perform a Critical Resource Analysis prior to bringing the card on-line
2. Start SMH.
3. From the SMH Areas screen, select Peripheral Devices.
4. From the Peripheral Devices screen, select Cards.
5. From the I/O Cards screen, view the list of available I/O slots (will read “empty slot”). Select
the slot you wish to use.
6. From the Menu bar, select Actions.
7. From the Actions drop-down list, select Add.
8. SMH now performs a Critical Resource Analysis (CRA). That is, now that you have selected
to Add a card, SMH’s first step is to confirm that no critical resources will be disabled when
the power to the slot is switched off.
Output messages from the CRA process are presented in the Analyze Critical Resources screen
which will be shown before you can proceed. The messages displayed on this screen and the
availability to continue on from it (OK button activated) depend on the results of the analysis.
