Installing a Power Supply
1 Slide the new power supply into the chassis until the power supply is fully
seated and the release latch snaps into place. See Figure 3-2.
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.
2 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 hot-adding or hot-swapping a new power supply, allow several
seconds for the system to recognize the power supply and determine whether it is
working properly. The power supply status indicator will turn green to signify that
the power supply is functioning properly (see Figure 1-6).
Removing a Power Supply Blank
If you are installing a second power supply, remove the power supply blank in
the bay by pulling firmly on the hole in the middle of the blank.
CAUTION:
To ensure proper system cooling, the power supply blank must be
installed in the second power supply bay in a non-redundant configuration.
Remove the power supply blank only if you are installing a second power supply.
Installing a Power Supply Blank
NOTE:
Install the power supply blank only in the second power supply bay.
To install the power supply blank, align the blank with the power supply bay
and insert it into the chassis until it clicks into place.
