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 isn’t turned on, the supply status light blinks green when the power cord is
plugged in to an outlet with power.
