SUPERSERVER 5010H/5010E Manual

6-5 Power Supply

The SuperServer 5010H/5010E has a single 200 watt power supply. This power supply has an auto-switching capability, which enables it to automatically sense and operate with either 110 or 220 volt inputs. A power on/off switch is located at the back of the power supply. Turning this power switch to the off position will remove both main and standby power from the system.

Power Supply Failure

If the power supply unit fails, the system will shut down and you will need to replace the power supply unit. Replacement units can be ordered directly from Supermicro. See contact infomation in the Preface.

Replacing the Power Supply

1.Accessing the inside of the SuperServer 5010H/5010E:

To replace a power supply, you must first remove the top chassis cover. To do so, first release the retention screws that secure the unit to the rack. Grasp the two handles on either side and pull the unit straight out until it locks (you will hear a "click"). Next, depress the two buttons on the top of the chassis to release the top cover and push it away from you. You can then lift the top cover from the chassis to gain full access to the inside of the server.

2.Removing the power supply: (See Figure 6-6)

First unplug the power cord from the system. To remove the failed power unit, remove the two screws on the back of the power supply, which secure it to the chassis. You can then lift the unit straight out of the chassis. (The power cord should have already been removed.)

3.Installing a new power supply:

Replace the failed unit with another unit of the same wattage. It is highly recommended to replace it with the exact same power supply. Carefully insert the new unit into position in the chassis and secure it with the two screws at the rear of the unit. Before reconnecting the power cord, make sure the power switch on the power supply is in the off position. Then reconnect the power cord, replace the chassis top cover and push the unit back into the rack. Finish by turning the power switch on the power supply on, and then depress the power button on the front of the system.
