Use this information to replace the optional PCI or ML2
adapter.
To replace the optional PCI or ML2 adapter, complete the
following steps.
註:
- If your adapter was previously configured, backup or record its
configuration information, if possible, before replacing the adapter.
See the documentation for your adapter for information and instructions.
- In the legacy mode, this system has limited ROM space for installed
options. At most four network interface cards (NICs) are supported
for legacy PXE boot. If more than four NICs are installed, legacy
PXE boot will not be attempted on some of the NICs. To enable legacy
PXE boot on the desired NIC connectors, prioritize the desired NIC
connectors by changing the ROM execution Order or disable the
NIC connectors that you do not use from the Enable/Disable Adapter
Option ROM Support menu.
- Turn off the water-cooled technology tray and
peripheral devices and disconnect the power cords and all external
cables.
- Remove the cover (see Removing the cover).
- Disconnect the cables from the adapter.
- Insert the adapter/ML2 card into the PCI riser-cage assembly/ML2
riser card assembly, aligning the edge connector on the adapter/ML2
card with the connector on the PCI riser-cage assembly/ML2 riser card
assembly. Press the edge of the connector firmly into the PCI
riser-cage assembly/ML2 riser card assembly. Make sure that the adapter/ML2
card snaps into the PCI riser-cage assembly/ML2 riser card assembly
securely.
