Removing or Installing a Power Supply

You can replace or install a power supply from the back panel without removing the

Xserve 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 removing.

2

Pull the handle to release the power supply and slide it out of the bay.

WARNING:

The power supplies in a running Xserve might be hot.

Pull the handle to unlatch the
power supply and remove it.
