Accessing Non-Hot-Plug Devices
This section describes how to access the following:
■ Processors and memory
■ Removable media drive
■ SCSI drive cage
■ PCI expansion boards
■ External storage
To install options, upgrades, or replacements in these areas, you must first shut
down the server power.
CAUTION: If Wake-on-LAN is enabled, power off the unit and disconnect the
power cord when inserting or removing expansion cards to eliminate the
possibility of spurious signals on the power management pins. Each PCI slot has
a power management pin that can be used to wake up the system. The network
interface card (NIC) that ships with the ProLiant ML530 server, and other NICs
that support the PCI 2.2 specification, can use this pin to turn the unit on when a
magic packet arrives. Wake-on-LAN is disabled by default and can be enabled
by using the configuration utility.
