supply is identified as P0, and the second hot-swappable power supply is identified as P1 (Figure 3-3).

CAUTION: When a second power supply is not used, the empty power supply slot must remain covered with the supplied metal filler panel. Failure to observe this caution can result in damage due to overheating.

Install the hot-swappable power supply into the server before attaching the new power cord. Failure to observe this caution can result in damage to the server.

Installing a Hot-Swappable Power Supply

To install a hot-swappable power supply on the front of the server, follow these steps:

1.Remove the metal filler panel if necessary.

2.Support the power supply with both hands, and slide it into the empty slot until it clicks into place (Figure 3-3).

IMPORTANT: Ensure the power supply is flush with the adjacent power supply or metal filler panel.
