To verify that you installed the system battery correctly once you set the time and date, follow these
steps:
a.
Power off the system.
b.
Unplug the power cord.
c.
Wait for a minute before turning it back on.

If necessary, reconfigure the Integrity iLO MP (see “Console Setup” on page 118).
Installing Power Supplies and Disk Drives
This section provides information about installing hot-swappable power supplies and hot-pluggable disk
drives. Hot-swappable power supplies are located at the rear of the HP 9000 rp4410 and rp4440 servers, and
hot-pluggable disk drives are located behind the front bezels.
CAUTION
A hot-pluggable device can require interaction with the operating system before the device is
safely installed into the server. Verify that the operating system supports installing disk drives
while the operating system is running. If the operating system does not support this feature,
shut down the operating system before attempting this procedure. Failure to observe this
caution results in system failure. For more information on hot-pluggable procedures. See
“Hot-Pluggable PCI/PCI-X” on page 100.
NOTE
A hot-swappable device does not require interaction with the operating system before the
device is removed from or installed into the server.
The ac power to the server does not need to be off to install a hot-swappable power supply.
Installing Hot-Swappable Power Supplies
This section provides instructions on how to install power supplies.
Power Supply Load Order
The supported configuration of an HP 9000 rp4410 or rp4440 server requires a minimum of one power supply.
You can install a second, optional hot-swappable power supply, to provide N+1 capability.
The left side (viewing from the rear) hot-swappable power supply is identified as P0, and the second
hot-swappable power supply is identified as P1. Each hot-swappable power supply requires a separate power
cord, installed in the appropriate power cord receptacle and attached to a power cord support bracket.
WARNING
Be careful when installing a hot-swappable power supply. It is heavier than it
appears.
