4 Relocating an E4SA
This section describes how to relocate a Ethernet 4 ServerNet adapter (E4SA) that has
been previously installed in an HP NonStop S-series system enclosure. An E4SA can
be relocated without shutting down the system.
This section includes the following topics:
Note. As of G06.22 and later RVUs, the HP NonStop Open System Management (OSM)
Interface replaces TSM as the system management tool of choice for NonStop systems. For
instructions on using OSM or migrating to OSM, refer to the OSM documentation for your RVU.
Caution. If a previously installed E4SA and backplane connector have damaged pins, remove
the E4SA and install a filler panel in the vacant slot. Attach red tags to the filler panel to identify
the slot. Do not move the damaged E4SA to a different, undamaged slot. Both the E4SA and
backplane (or enclosure) must be replaced. For backplane replacement, refer to the backplane
replacement section of the HP NonStop S-Series Service Provider Supplement available in the
G-series NonStop Technical Library (NTL) collection.
