Instructions
Note: This article is part of the Server Tutorials: "Power Supply" available here
Replacing a power supply unit is a simple action. If the server has two power supplies configured in redundant mode, which is the default setting, you can remove one of them without shutting down the server.
The remaining power supply will continue to provide the power to the server. In general, all components with an amber removal tool can be unplugged while the server is powered on.
Warning: The system requires one power supply for normal operation. On power-redundant systems, remove and replace only one power supply at a time in a system that is powered on.
- Disconnect the power cable from the power source and from the power supply unit that you intend to remove, and then remove the cable from the strap.
- Press the release latch and slide the power supply unit out of the chassis.
| 1. | Release latch |

To insert the new power supply insert the block in the slot. This operation can be done while the server is powered on.
