Installing Enclosure Components

NOTE:

To ensure proper operation and cooling, all bays in the enclosure must be

populated at all times with either a module or with a blank.

Power Supply Modules

The M1000e enclosure supports up to six hot-swappable power supply

modules, accessible from the enclosure back panel.

NOTE:

The 2360 W and 2700 W power supply modules require 200–240 V input from

a PDU. If the power supply modules are plugged into 110 V electrical outlets, the

system provides 2200 W AC input power if you select the Allow 110 VAC Operation

check box in the CMC Power Configuration screen.

NOTE:

The power supply modules have internal fans that provide thermal cooling

to these modules. A power supply module must be replaced if an internal fan failure

occurs.

System Power Guidelines

Your system has one of the following power supply configurations:

• Three 2360 W or three 2700 W power supply modules, which do not

provide redundancy if one power supply module fails. The power supplies

are installed in bays 1 through 3.

• Six 2360 W or six 2700 W power supply modules, which provide

redundancy if up to three power supply modules fail.

The CMC module controls power management for the system. You can

program the CMC to configure the power budget, redundancy, and dynamic

power of the entire enclosure (chassis, servers, I/O modules, iKVM, CMC,

and power supplies). The power management service optimizes power

consumption and re-allocates power to different modules based on real-time

demand. For more information, see "Power Management" in the Dell Chassis

Management Controller User’s Guide.

NOTE:

The wattage of a power supply module is listed on its regulatory label.
