Re: Cards Not Hot Swap in 720 Power7 CPU Chassis ( CEC )

Yes. This is true for 710, 720, 730, and 740 and both the 'B' and 'C' generations. ***DO NOT REMOVE*** the cover while operating or you'll be able to remove the cards.... because the power will shut off and do so real sudden-like. (oops!) IBM chose not to include that capability in the low end machines.

If you have expansion units such as 5802 or 5877 those units support concurrent maintenance.
