To enable the PCI Hot Plug based hot swap and hot expansion of the PCI card that is connected to a shared disk, the shared disk must be configured as follows:
A RAID unit must be redundant with multipath driver
An SCSI device must be redundant with GDS (for swapping only)
For information on how to replace a PCI card that is connected to the redundant RAID device with multipath driver, and how to add a path along with the addition of a PCI card, see the "Oracle Solaris Administration: Devices and File Systems."
For information on how to replace a PCI card that is connected to the redundant SCSI device with GDS, see "Chapter 2 GDS".
