Note: If your server comes with one hot-swap power supply installed in the power supply bay 1 (the bay
number is marked on the rear of the chassis) and you are installing a hot-swap redundant power supply
to provide redundant power, you need to remove the shield that protects the power supply bay 2 first
and save the shield for future use. Insert a finger into the hole in the metal shield, press the tab

1

in

the direction as shown, and then pull the shield out of the chassis.

check the status LED near the power connector. When the LED is lit in green, it indicates that the
hot-swap redundant power supply is working correctly. When the LED is lit in amber, it indicates that the
hot-swap redundant power supply is likely to fail or has failed. You need to reinstall or replace it.
