Installing a DC Power Supply
Important:
Installing a combination of AC-input and DC-input power supplies in the same chassis is not
supported.
The VSP 8000 Series supports two field-replaceable 800 W power supplies. One comes with the
switch and you can install a second power supply to provide redundancy and load sharing.
There are two power supply slots (PSU1 on top and PSU2 on the bottom).
• If you only have one power supply, you can install it in either PSU1 or PSU2.
• If you install a second power supply, neither one acts as a primary power supply. The two
power supplies load share equally.
Before you begin
• If you are replacing an installed power supply, see
• Remove the DC power supply wiring assembly before installing or removing the power supply.
