Installing Adapter Hardware
The Online Addition and Replacement feature, OLAR for HP-UX 11i v1, or OL* for HP-UX 11i v2 and later
HP-UX releases, enables PCI host bus adapters to be added or replaced without shutting down and rebooting
the system, and without adversely affecting other system components. The system hardware uses slot-specific
power control, combined with HP-UX operating system support, to enable these features.
Confirm whether OLAR or OL* are supported on the system in wich you plan to install a Fibre Channel
adapter. See the HP Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter Support Matrix, at:
http://docs.hp.com/en/netcom.html#Fibre%20Channel
For detailed instructions on using OLAR on HP-UX 11i v1, see Chapter 2 of Configuring HP-UX for
Peripherals, which can be accessed at:

For detailed instructions on using OL* on HP-UX 11i v2 and later HP-UX releases, see the Interface Card
OL* Support Guide at:
