Installing the Redundant Power Supply
1 Verify that both power supplies are of the same type and have the
same maximum output power.
2 Slide the new power supply into the system until the power supply is fully
seated and the release latch snaps into place. See Figure 3-18.
3 Reconnect your system and peripherals to their electrical outlets, and turn
on the system.
NOTE: When installing, hot-swapping, or hot-adding a new power supply in a
system with two power supplies, allow several seconds for the system to recognize
the power supply and determine its status. The power-supply status indicator turns
green to signify that the power supply is functioning properly. See Figure 1-4.
