To Prepare the HBA for Hot-Plug Removal (Oracle Solaris)

If you want to remove the HBA without first halting the operating system and removing power from the associated server blade, prepare the HBA for removal as follows:

1. Use the cfgadm command to identify the HBA to be removed.

   cfgadm
   	   Ap_Id             Type         Receptacle   Occupant     Condition
   	   pcie1             pci-pci/hp   connected    configured   ok
   	   pcie2             pci-pci/hp   connected    configured   ok
   

2. Use the cfgadm -c unconfigure command to unconfigure the attachment point ID (Ap_Id) for the HBA.
3. Use the cfgadm -c disconnect command to prepare the HBA for removal.

   A flashing Power OK LED indicates that the HBA is being prepared for removal. An off Power OK LED indicates that the HBA is ready to be removed.
