Hot-swapping a power supply module

If all three hot-swap power supply modules are installed, you can replace a failed module without turning the server off.

To replace a hot-swap power supply module:

1Follow the static electricity precautions in “Preventing static electricity discharge” on page 25.

2Determine which power supply has failed by checking the indicator LEDs or using your server management software.

3Remove the bezel. (See “Removing the bezel” on page 27.)

4Loosen the captive thumbscrew at the bottom of the failed power supply module.

5Press down on the tab at the top of the failed module and pull the module out.

6Pull the power supply module entirely out of the chassis.
