SUMMARY: HBA Replacement in S10 on V880 attached to 3910 array

Well I only got one response that said the procedures should work.

But I decided to see what happens when you just shut the server down and
replace the card without any administration whatsoever.

Nothing happened other than the system came up without problems.
I even pulled the fiber cable out of one of the remaining original
cards and everything was fine.

One less procedure I have to re-write.

Later
