AIX 5.3 TL07 - Replace FC card on P1-C2 (fcs3) with scsi card
by cbriscoejr from LinuxQuestions.org on (#534DY)
The scsi card is to add an IBM 2104 DU3 disk array. I need to know how to swap the cards.
I thought it was as simple as
1) rmdev -l fcs3
2) power off server
3) insert the scsi adapter "IBM PCI Dual Channel PCI-X Ultra320 SCSI Adapter 97P6513"
4) power on server
5) run cfgmgr
Not sure next steps but will work that when I get there
Problem is rmdev -l fcs3 gives me this message
Method error (/usr/lib/methods/ucfgcommo):
0514-029 Cannot perform the requested function because a
child device of the specified device is not in a
correct state.
