Replacing a power supply module
If your server uses the optional hot-swappable, redundant power supplies and one of the two
power supplies fails, the other power supply module supports the server while you replace the
failed module. You do not need to turn off the server or disconnect peripheral devices to replace
a failed power supply module.
To replace a power supply module:
1 If you only have one power supply module, turn off your server.
2 If you have two power supply modules, examine the LED indicators on the back of each
power supply module to identify the failed module. The power supply module has failed
if the orange (right) LED indicator is on.
3 Unplug the power cord from the failed power supply module.
Caution
The heatsink has Thermal Interface Material (TIM) located on the bottom of
it. Use caution when you unpack the heat sink so you do not damage the TIM. If
you are reusing the original heatsink, make sure that the TIM on the bottom of
the heatsink is not damaged. If the TIM is damaged, you should remove the old
TIM, then apply new TIM to the bottom of the heatsink.
Warning
The power supply modules in this server contain no user-serviceable parts. Only a
qualified computer technician should service the power supply modules.
Your server comes with 3-wire AC power cords fitted with the correct plug style for your
region. If this plug does not match the connector on your surge protector, UPS, or wall
outlet, do not attempt to modify the plug in any way. Use a UPS or wall outlet that is
appropriate for the supplied AC power cords.
