Removable I/O Adapters

This area lists the I/O slots that currently belong to the logical partition. The list is ordered by unit, bus, and slot.

The list displays a description of the I/O adapter that is in each I/O slot. If the I/O device is an I/O processor (IOP), this description is either PCI I/O Processor or I/O Processor.

If the I/O slot is empty, this description is Empty slot.

Otherwise, the system uses the first description it finds in the following hierarchy.

• Description of the custom card identification number (CCIN)
• Description of the feature code
• Description of the Peripheral Component Interface (PCI) class code
• Unknown

The managed system updates the description only when the physical I/O device belongs to a running logical partition. This information might not be up to date if you remove the physical I/O device from the running logical partition or shut down the logical partition to which the physical I/O device belongs.
