Caution
The heatsink has Thermal Interface
Material (TIM) located on the bottom of
it. Use caution when you unpack the
heatsink so you do not damage the TIM.
If you are reusing the original heatsink,
make sure that the TIM on the bottom of
the heatsink is not damaged. If the TIM is
damaged, you should apply new TIM to
the bottom of the heatsink.

Replacing a power supply module and power board
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 725 W hot-swappable power supply modules
(optional). 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 (standard), 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 down on the retaining clip (1) on the power supply 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.
