Installing a Power Supply

1 On a system with redundant power supplies, verify that both power

supplies are the same type and have the same maximum output power.

NOTE:

The maximum output power (shown in watts) is listed on the power

supply label.

2 Slide the new power supply into the chassis until the power supply is fully

seated and the release latch snaps into place. See Figure 3-7.

NOTE:

If you unlatched the cable management arm in step 2 of the previous

procedure, relatch it. For information about the cable management arm, see

the system’s rack documentation.

3 Connect the power cable to the power supply and plug the cable into a

power outlet.

CAUTION:

When connecting the power cable, secure the cable with the Velcro

strap.

NOTE:

When installing, hot-swapping, or hot-adding a new power supply in a

system with two power supplies, allow several seconds for the system to recognize

the power supply and determine its status. The power-supply status indicator turns

green to signify that the power supply is functioning properly (see Figure 1-5).
