Checking the power status of a PCI Express slot
-
For the partition with Dynamic Reconfiguration utility installed
Execute /opt/FJSVdp-util/sbin/dp stat pcie command on the shell of OS.
After the list of the power status of PCI Express slots is shown, see the power status of the slot with the
slot number which you confirmed at “Confirming the slot number of a PCI Express slot”
Example:
Execute /opt/FJSVdp-util/sbin/dp stat pcie command on the shell of OS.
After the list of the power status of PCI Express slots is shown, see the power status of the slot with the
slot number which you confirmed at “Confirming the slot number of a PCI Express slot”
Example:
# /opt/FJSVdp-util/sbin/dp stat pcie

Powering on and off PCI Express slots
-
For the partition with Dynamic Reconfiguration utility installed
Execute /opt/FJSVdp-util/sbin/dp rm pcie<slot number> command on the shell of OS.
The PCI Express card is disabled and has become to be ready for removal. The LED goes out.
Example: Making the PCI Express slot with PCI Express slot number 20 power off
Execute /opt/FJSVdp-util/sbin/dp rm pcie<slot number> command on the shell of OS.
The PCI Express card is disabled and has become to be ready for removal. The LED goes out.
Example: Making the PCI Express slot with PCI Express slot number 20 power off
# /opt/FJSVdp-util/sbin/dp rm pcie20
This operation concurrently removes the device associated with the relevant adapter from the system.
Execute /opt/FJSVdp-util/sbin/dp add pcie<slot number> command on the shell of OS to power on the
target slot and enable the PCI Express card on the slot. The PCI Express card becomes available again.
Example:
target slot and enable the PCI Express card on the slot. The PCI Express card becomes available again.
Example:
# /opt/FJSVdp-util/sbin/dp add pcie20
This operation concurrently installs the device associated with the relevant adapter on the system. After
power-on, you need to confirm that the card and driver are correctly installed. The procedures vary
depending on the card and driver specifications. For the appropriate procedures, see the respective
manuals.
