|---|---|---|---|
|
A nonpersistent interface is hot-plugged. |
The interface is hot-plugged into the next available PCI slot with the higher slot number. For example, dp0s3. |
dp0s3 |
The dp0s3 interface no longer exists. |
|
A persistent interface is hot-plugged. |
The interface is hot-plugged into the next available PCI slot with the higher slot number. For example, dp0s3. |
dp0s3 |
The dp0s3 interface persists. |
|
A nonpersistent interface is hot-plugged followed by another nonpersistent interface. |
The interfaces are hot-plugged into the next available and consecutive PCI slots with the higher numbers. For example, dp0s3 followed by dp0s4. |
dp0s3 dp0s4 |
The dp0s3 and dp0s4 interfaces no longer exist. |
|
A nonpersistent interface is hot-plugged followed by a persistent interface. |
The interfaces are hot-plugged into the next available and consecutive PCI slots with the higher numbers. For example, dp0s3 followed by dp0s4. |
dp0s3 dp0s4 |
The dp0s3 interface is detached and the dp0s4 interface persists, but it is plugged into PCI slot 3 (dp0s3). |
|
A persistent interface is hot-plugged followed by a nonpersistent interface. |
The interfaces are hot-plugged into the next available and consecutive PCI slots with the higher numbers. For example, dp0s3 followed by dp0s4. |
dp0s3 dp0s4 |
The dp0s3 interface persists, but the dp0s4 interface is detached and no longer exists. |
|
A persistent interface is hot-plugged into PCI slot 10. |
The interface is hot-plugged into PCI slot 10. |
dp0s10 |
The dp0s10 interface persists. |
|
A nonpersistent interface is hot-plugged into PCI slot 10. |
The interface is hot-plugged into PCI slot 10. |
dp0s10 |
The dp0s10 interface is detached and no longer exists. |
|
A nonpersistent interface is hot-plugged followed by a persistent interface that is hot-plugged into PCI slot 10. |
The nonpersistent interface is plugged into the next available slot with the higher number (for example, dp0s3). The persistent interface takes slot 10. |
dp0s3 dp0s10 |
The dp0s10 interface persists. The dp0s3 interface is detached and no longer exists. |
|
A persistent interface is hot-plugged followed by a nonpersistent interface that is hot-plugged into PCI slot 10. |
The persistent interface takes the next available higher slot. The nonpersistent interface takes slot 10. |
dp0s3 dp0s10 |
The dp0s3 interface persists. The dp0s10 interface is detached and no longer exists. |
|
A persistent interface is hot-plugged followed by a persistent interface that is hot-plugged into PCI slot 10. |
The first persistent interface takes the next available higher slot. The second persistent interface takes slot 10. |
dp0s3 dp0s10 |
The dp0s3 interface persists. The dp0s10 interface persists. |
|
A nonpersistent interface is hot-plugged followed by a nonpersistent interface that is hot-plugged into PCI slot 10. |
The first nonpersistent takes the next available higher slot. The second nonpersistent interface takes slot 10. |
dp0s3 dp0s10 |
The dp0s3 interface is detached and no longer exists. The dp0s10 interface is detached and no longer exists. |
|
A persistent interface is hot-plugged followed by a persistent interface (dp0s4) and then the former interface is detached. |
The second interface persists. |
dp0s4 |
The dp0s4 interface persists. |
