• Slots 7 and 8 are nonshared slots. The maximum speed for cards in slots 7 and 8 is PCI-X
133 MHz.
• Slots 9 and 10 are shared slots. These two slots are limited by bus mode or frequency-related
incompatibilities.
IMPORTANT: Slots 9 and 10 on the PCI/PCI-X/PCIe I/O backplane have the same
configuration limitations as slots 9 and 10 on the PCI/PCI-X I/O backplane.
Table 69 lists the PCI/PCI-X card slot frequency and bus mode compatibility for shared slots.

The conditions described in this table apply only to shared slots (slots 7, 8, 9, and 10). Slots 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 are
not shared slots.
2
Card is accepted and runs at frequency shown.
3
The new card does not initialize and powers down due to frequency mismatch.
4
The new card does not initialize and powers down due to bus mode mismatch.
PCI/PCI-X/PCIe Card Path Logging
Some PCI/PCI-X/PCIe failures result in I/O path logging. These paths help to indicate the source
of the error and can be included in the error message or logged into console or event logs.
Table 70 describes the PCI/PCI-X I/O paths for the server. Table 71 (page 196) describes the
PCI/PCI-X/PCIe I/O paths for the server.
