Hot-swapping Power Supplies
!
CAUTION
Because of chassis airow disruption, a power supply bay should never be vacant (without a power
supply or a ller panel) for more than ve minutes when the server power is on. Exceeding ve-
minutes might cause the system to exceed the maximum acceptable temperature and possibly
damage system components.
In a fully congured system (see Figure 63), the power system contains two 1200-watt auto ranging
power supplies. If you have only one power supply installed, it must occupy power supply bay A and
a ller panel must be installed in power supply bay B. For 120 VAC input, two power supply modules
must be installed for normal operation.
