Preparing for Installation
Installation of an adapter requires disassembly of a few system
components. Before beginning the installation, see the HP-UX system’s
manual for detailed instructions on installing host bus adapters in the
PCI slots.
To install the A6828A or A6829A adapter, you need the following:
✓ One HP A6828A or A6829A SCSI HBA
✓ One grounding (ESD) kit (shipped with the adapter)
✓ Additional tools needed for installing components in the HP-UX
system (for example, screwdrivers); see the system’s documentation.
NOTE The maximum number of SCSI HBAs you can install in any HP-UX
system is equal to the maximum number of corresponding card slots in
the system. For example, if a system has four PCI card slots, you can
install four SCSI PCI HBAs in that system, assuming that all the PCI
card slots are empty.
Check the latest support matrix for systems that support these adapters.
