Working

with

power

supplies

The

power

supply

CRUs

provide

power

to

the

internal

components

by

converting

incoming

ac

voltage

to

dc

voltage.

The

DS4100

base

storage

server

power

system

operates

with

two

power

supply

CRUs

that

can

be

hot-swapped.

In

the

DS4100

base

storage

server,

one

power

supply

CRU

can

maintain

electrical

power

to

the

unit

if

the

other

power

supply

is

turned

off

or

malfunctions.

The

power

supply

CRUs

are

interchangeable

(by

reversing

the

locking

levers).

The

DS4100

single-controller

storage

server

has

only

one

power

supply

CRU.

You

cannot

remove

or

replace

a

working

(non-failed)

power

supply

in

the

DS4100

single-controller

storage

server

without

first

powering

down

the

storage

subsystem.

Before

you

replace

the

power

supply

in

the

DS4100

single-controller

storage

server,

all

I/O

activity

must

be

stopped

and

the

storage

server

must

be

powered

down.
