Replacing a power supply and fan assembly
Complete the following steps to replace a combined power supply and fan assembly in a Brocade 6505.
CAUTION
The power supply switch must be in the off position when you insert the power supply into the
chassis. Damage to the switch can result if a live power supply is installed.
1. Ensure that the new power supply and fan assembly has the same part number as the power supply
and fan assembly being replaced.
2. Orient the new power supply and fan assembly with the captive screw on the right, as shown in the
figure.
Do not force the installation. If the FRU does not slide in easily, ensure that it is correctly oriented
before continuing.
CAUTION
Carefully follow the mechanical guides on each side of the power supply slot and make sure
the power supply is properly inserted in the guides. Never insert the power supply upside
down.
3. Gently push the power supply and fan assembly into the chassis until it is firmly seated.
4. Using the Phillips screwdriver, secure the power supply and fan assembly to the chassis by
tightening in the captive screw.
5. Plug the power cord into the power supply and fan assembly and power on the unit by switching the
AC power switch to the I symbol.
6. Verify that the LED on the new power supply and fan assembly displays a steady green light while
the Brocade 6520 is operating. If the LED is not a steady green, ensure that the power supply is
securely installed and seated properly.
7. Optionally, if using the command line interface (CLI), enter the psShow command at the command
line prompt to display the status. You can also use the fanShow or chassisShow commands. Power
supply and fan assembly status can also be viewed using the Web Tools application.
Adding a second power supply and fan assembly in a Brocade 6505
Since the base model of the Brocade 6505 has only one power supply and fan assembly, you can add a
second assembly to provide power and cooling redundancy.

Replacing a power supply and fan assembly in the Brocade 6505 should require less than two minutes
to complete.
The following items are required to replace a power supply and fan assembly:
