Replacing a power supply module
Caution
The power supplies in this server contain
no user-serviceable parts. Only a
qualified computer technician should
service the power supplies.
Your server comes with 3-wire AC power
cords fitted with the correct plug style for
your region. If this plug does not match
the connector on your surge protector,
UPS, or wall outlet, do not attempt to
modify the plug in any way. Use a surge
protector, UPS, or wall outlet that is
appropriate for the supplied AC power
cords.
Your server uses as many as two 700 W hot-swappable power supply modules.
If your server has both power supply modules installed, the modules act as
redundant, hot-swappable power supplies. If one of the two power supplies
fails, the other power supply supports the server while you replace the failed
power supply. You do not need to turn off the server or disconnect peripheral
devices to replace a failed redundant power supply.
If your server is only equipped with a single power supply, the server must be
turned off and the AC power cord removed before replacing it.
To replace a power supply module:
1
If your server is equipped with more than one power supply module,
determine which power supply module has failed (the LED on the power
supply will be orange).
2
If your server has only one power supply module installed, make sure that
you turn off the server, then unplug the power cord before continuing.
- OR -
If your server has two power supply modules installed, you do not need
to turn off the power to the server before continuing.
3
Press the retaining clip (1) on the power supply to the left to release the
power supply module (2) from the chassis.
4
Pull the power supply module straight out of the server with the handle.
It may take considerable force to remove.
5
Push the new power supply module into the server, with the retaining clip
on the right, until it locks into place.
6
Reconnect the AC power cord for the new power supply module.
