NOTE: The HP PC 10/100VG card (J25677A) and the HP 9000 10/100VG card (J2645AA). are not interchangeable. The PC 10/100VG card is not supported by the HP9000 100VG-AnyLAN driver.If you installed the card before you installed the software, execute shutdown (no -h option) and proceed to ''Step 6: Attach the Workstation to the Network."

Follow the steps below to prepare the system for installation of 100VG-AnyLAN hardware. Refer to the documentation for your system for detailed information about opening and closing the system and locating the slots in the EISA backplane.

  1. At the HP-UX prompt, execute the following command and wait for the system to shutdown completely.

    /etc/shutdown   -h 0

    Power off and unplug the system.

  2. Observe antistatic precautions.

    Handle the card by the edges and avoid touching the edge connector and the components.

    Equalize any static charge on your body and your computer by using a grounded wrist strap or by touching the chassis of the computer frequently while you are installing the card.

  3. Remove the cover of the computer to access the expansion slots. Refer to your computer system documentation for removal instructions.

  4. If you have a S715/33, S720, or S730 model, remove the EISA system interface, insert the EISA 10/100VG card into the card guide on the EISA interface, and place the whole unit back into the system.

    If you have a different S700 model, the EISA interface is not removable. Insert the card directly into the same slot that you configured it for in eisa_config in "Step 3: Set the EISA Card Configuration."

  5. Go to the next section, ''Step 5: Install the 10/100VG Card.''
