Failed Power Supplies or Fan Units

The status of power supplies and fan units can be checked using the CLI, the
Chassis Manager, or the Element Manager. The available information includes the
status, the vital product data (VPD), the description of the error or an error code.
If you suspect that a power supply module has failed, check the LEDs (see the
“Power Supply and Fan LEDs” section on page4-3) and view the status through
the Element Manager.
In most cases, vital information can be retrieved from the console port of
management Ethernet port. See the “Vital Product Data Storage” section on
page 1-5.
Refer to the Cisco SFS 7000 Series Product Family Chassis Manager User Guide
or Cisco SFS 7000 Series Product Family Element Manager User Guide for more
information.

Caution Never place your hand inside an empty module bay or anywhere inside the Cisco

To insert a power supply or fan unit, follow these steps:
Step1 Ground yourself appropriately.
Step2 Remove the filler panel from the power supply bay with a number 1 Phillips
screwdriver, if it is still in place (see Figure3-1).
