Replacing a Power Supply
You
can
replace
a
power
supply
without
opening
the
Xserve
or
removing
it
from
the
rack.
If
the
Xserve
has
two
power
supplies,
they
are
hot-swappable;
the
Xserve
continues
to
operate
using
only
one
supply
while
the
second
is
removed.
To remove a power supply:
1
Unplug the power cord from the power supply you are replacing.
2
Pull the handle on the power supply to release it and slide it out of the bay.
To install a power supply:
1
Pull
open
the
handle
on
the
new
power
supply,
slide
it
all
the
way
into
the
bay,
and
then
press
the
handle
to
seat
the
power
supply
and
lock
it
in
place.
2
Connect the power cord to the power supply.
If
the
Xserve
is
already
running
on
a
second
power
supply,
the
status
light
on
the
new
supply
turns
green
to
indicate
normal
operation
as
it
starts
sharing
the
load.
If
the
Xserve
is
not
turned
on,
the
supply
status
light
blinks
green
when
the
power
cord
is
plugged
in
to
an
outlet
with
power.
The Xserve is now ready to use.
WARNING:
The power supplies in a running Xserve might be hot.
Pull the handle to unlatch the
power supply and remove it.
Slide the power supply in and
press the handle to seat it.
