Preparing for installation
If you are installing your operating system at this time, install your adapter before you install the
operating system. If you are installing only the device driver for this adapter, install your device driver
software before you install the adapter. Ensure that your operating system supports this adapter before
you install it. See "Operating system or partition requirements" on page 89.
Installing the AIX device driver software
To install device driver software, follow the steps in "Installing the AIX device driver software" on page
224.
Installing the adapter
For general instructions on how to install a PCI adapter, see the Installing PCI adapters topic. Return here
to verify the adapter installation.
Verifying the adapter installation
To verify that your system recognizes the PCI adapter, do the following steps:
1. If necessary, log in as root user.
2. At the command line, type: lsdev -Cs pci
3. Press Enter.
A list of PCI devices is displayed. If the adapter is installed correctly, the status of available for each port
indicates that the adapter is installed and ready to use. If a message indicates that any of the ports are
defined instead of available, shut down your server and verify that the adapter was installed correctly.
