Installing a Replacement Board

If you have not already done so, read "General Preparations".

1. If you are not continuing from "Removing a Board" above, otherwise go to Step 2.

   1. Use the cfgadm command to display the current system configuration.

   2. Select a card cage slot to use, but do not insert the board yet.

2. View the configuration list and verify that the slot is unconfigured:

   ---

   # cfgadm
   

   ---

3. Insert the board in the slot and look for an acknowledgment on the console, such as, "name board inserted into slot3."

4. Use the cfgadm command again to look for the system name assigned to the new board.

5. Configure the board using the system name for the board:

   ---

   # cfgadm -c configure sysctrl#:slotx
   

   ---

6. Configure any I/O devices on the board using commands such as drvconfig and devlinks, as appropriate.

7. Activate the devices on the board using commands such as mount and ifconfig, as appropriate.
