Troubleshooting Your Enclosure
If the DC power LED is not lit, verify that the power switch is turned on. If
the power switch is turned on, continue to step 3.
If the power supply's fault indicator is lit, continue to step 3.
NOTICE:
Power supply/cooling fan modules are hot-pluggable. The enclosure can
operate on a single functioning power supply; however, both modules must be
installed to ensure proper cooling. A single power supply/cooling fan module can
be removed from the enclosure for up to 5 minutes, provided the other module is
functioning properly. After 5 minutes, the enclosure will overheat and may cause an
automatic thermal shutdown.
2 Ensure that the power supply is properly installed by removing and re-
installing it. See "Removing and Installing the Power Supply/Cooling Fan
Module" on page 35.
NOTE:
After installing a power supply, allow several seconds for the enclosure
to recognize the power supply and to determine if it is working properly.
3 If the problem persists, see "Getting Help" on page 53.
