i was a bit wary myself, but recently moved and installed some cards in a
running 6H1. just make sure you (1) identify the slot, (2) tell it you're
doing a hot-plug operation and (3) tell it you're done. there should be a
light to tell you whether the slot is active or not, if you do the identify
step first, it'll blink. We didn't have any problems.

Subject: Using the PCI Hot Plug Option
Hi everyone,
Has anyone ever installed a PCI hot pluggable device on a running system?
Any pitfalls I shoud avoid? I have a 7026-H80 and I am planning on
moving/installing two PCI 4-Channel Ultra3 SCSI RAID (Type 4-X) from a
couple of B50s to an 726-H80.
Or should I avoid this completely and do the old and reliable way, bring
down the system and install the adapters. I prefer shutting the system down
and installing.
Your input is always greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Rolando Manaog
