Chapter 2. Installing optional devices
This chapter provides detailed instructions for installing optional hardware devices in
the server.
Instructions for IBM Business Partners
In addition to the instructions in this chapter for installing optional hardware devices,
updating firmware and device drivers, and completing the installation, IBM Business
Partners must also complete the following steps:
1. After you have confirmed that the server starts correctly and recognizes the
newly installed devices and that no error LEDs are lit, run the Dynamic System
Analysis (DSA) stress tests. For information about using DSA, see the Problem
Determination and Service Guide.
2. Shut down and restart the server multiple times to ensure that the server is
correctly configured and functions correctly with the newly installed devices.
3. Save the DSA log as a file and send it to IBM. For information about transferring
data and logs, see http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/toolsctr/v1r0/
index.jsp?topic=/dsa/dsa_main.html.
4. To ship the server, repackage it in the original undamaged packing material and
observe IBM procedures for shipping.
