!

The peripheral power supply and power/cooling modules are hot-pluggable.

Caution – Boards in slots adjacent to a modular power supply may overheat if the supply is removed and not replaced. The modular power supply provides cooling air to two board slots.

Caution – Do not hot-plug boards or modules if the peripheral power supply is defective. The hot-plug feature requires a working peripheral power supply for precharge current.
