Abstract:
Embodiments of the present technology presented herein relate to a method for configuring a remote node and to a host node for performing said configuring of the remote node. The present technology presented herein also generally relates to embodiments of a method for reconfiguring the host node and to a reconfigurable host node. More particularly, the embodiments presented herein relate to configuring the remote node and reconfiguring the host by duplicating Peripheral Component Interconnect express, PCIe, hot-plug elements such that they are present at both the host node and the remote node. Furthermore there is introduced a connection state indicator at both the host node and the remote node for indicating that an optical connection has been established between the host and remote node.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for configuring a remote node connected to a first end of an optical cable, said optical cable being configured for communication between the remote node and a host node, each node comprising Peripheral Component Interconnect express, PCIe, hot-plug elements and a connection state indicator, the method comprising:\n plugging a second end of the optical cable into the host node; determining, by means of a hot-plug controller in the host node, the status of the connection state indicator of the host node; activating, by means of the hot-plug controller, an attention button of the hot-plug elements in response to determining that the connection state indicator indicates that an optical connection has been established between the remote node and the host node; requesting, by means of the hot-plug controller, a hot-plug system driver of the host node to configure the remote node; configuring the remote node; and, turning on, by means of the hot-plug controller, a power indicator Light Emitting Diode, (\u201cLED\u201d), in response to that the configuring process of the remote node has been terminated.
