The hot-swap redundant power supply adds a second source of power to the server. When the server is
populated with two hot-swap redundant power supplies, it can withstand a power loss from either power
supply. This helps you avoid signicant interruption to the operation of the system when a power supply
fails. You can replace a hot-swap redundant power supply without turning off the server.
Note: To maintain the EMI integrity and cooling of the server, install a new hot-swap redundant power
supply as soon as you remove the failing one or cover the other bay with a shield if you just use one module
to provide power.
Some server models come with only one power supply. You can purchase a hot-swap redundant power
supply option from Lenovo.
