3 Upgrading the system 52
Installing a redundant power supply
module
The Altos G701 server power subsystem consists of two hot-swappable
power supply module bays that accept standard 450-watts power
supply modules. The system comes bundled with only a single power
supply module leaving one power supply module bay empty. You have
the option to purchase an extra power supply module to provide your
system with redundant power source. This power configuration
enables a fully-configured system to continue running even if one
power supply module fails.
Note: The redundant power source feature is only applicable to
the Altos G701 model.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of personal injury or
damage to the equipment, the installation of power
supply modules should be referred to individuals who are
qualified to service server systems and are trained to deal
with equipment capable of generating hazardous energy
levels.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of personal injury from
hot surfaces, observe the thermal labels on each power
supply module. You can also consider wearing protective
gloves.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of personal injury from
electric shock hazards, do not open the power supply
modules. There are no serviceable parts inside the
module.
Caution! Electrostatic discharge can damage electronic
components. Make sure that you are properly grounded
before handling a power supply module.
