Troubleshooting Adapter Installation

If the slot that you want to install an adapter in was previously configured for another

adapter, you get an EMS message (storage message 1041) and the adapter is not

configured. To remove the previous configuration:

1. Find out what storage or LAN adapter is currently configured for that slot:

-> INFO ADAPTER $*.*

2. If that slot is configured for a LAN adapter, stop and delete all subordinate objects

like LIFs and PIFs.

3. Delete the adapter:

-> DELETE ADAPTER $ZZSTO.#type.GRP-n.MOD-1.SLOT-nn

-> DELETE ADAPTER $ZZLAN.#type.GRP-n.MOD-1.SLOT-nn

4. Physically install the new adapter.

5. Verify the adapter is available and ready to use:

-> STATUS ADAPTER $ZZSTO.#type
