Installing a PCI riser-card assembly
The following procedure is for a Tier 1 customer replaceable unit (CRU).
Replacement of Tier 1 CRUs is your responsibility. If IBM installs a Tier 1 CRU at
your request, you will be charged for the installation. Service agreements can be
purchased so that you can ask IBM to replace these units.
Ensure that you read and understand the following information:
v Standard models of the Storwize V7000 Unified come with one PCI riser-card
assembly installed. If you want to replace them with PCI-X riser-card assemblies,
you must order the PCI-X riser-card assembly option, which includes the
bracket.
v A PCI riser-card assembly has a black connector and supports PCI adapters, and
a PCI-X riser-card assembly has a white (light in color) connector and supports
PCI-X adapters.
v PCI riser slot 1 is the farthest slot from the power supplies. This slot supports
only low-profile adapters.
v PCI riser slot 2 is the closest slot to the power supplies. You must install a PCI
riser-card assembly in slot 2 even if you do not install an adapter.
v Microprocessor 2, aux power, and PCI riser-card assembly 2 share the same
power channel that is limited to 230 W.
Note: Before running a procedure, refer to “Removing a file module to perform a
maintenance action” on page 51.
To install a riser-card assembly, complete the following procedure.
