If you are hot-plugging a HP NetRAID-4M controller on a NetWare 5.x system, do not use
the NCMCON.NLM utility to load or reload the device drivers, since the NetWare system’s
probe routine will time out before the controller boots. Manually reload the drivers at least
60 seconds after repowering the PCI slot that contains the hot-plugged controller.

The actual number of controllers that will function in a system depends on the system
motherboard, the amount of system memory installed, and other PCI controllers installed
in the system. Refer to your system specifications.
