Why did my system not enter maintenance mode when I performed a one-to-many rmware

into maintenance mode.
Why is the chassis global health still healthy when some of the power supply status has
changed to critical?
The global health of the chassis with respect to the power supply is based on the redundancy policies and the whether the chassis
