CAUTION
The empty hot-swappable power supply slot P1 must remain closed with the supplied metal
cover in place when a second power supply is not used. The server can be damaged due to
overheating if the cover does not remain in place.
CAUTION
If the system is powered off, install the hot-swappable power supply into the server before
attaching the new power cord at the rear of the system. Failure to observe this caution results
in damage to the server.
To install a hot-swappable power supply, follow these steps:
Step 1.
If rack-mounted, slide the server out from the rack until it stops. (See “Extend the Server from the
Rack” on page 64.)
Step 2.
Remove the cable management arm from the rack slide nearest the power supplies. The cable
management arm does not need to be completely removed, but moved just enough to enable access
to the power supplies.
Step 3.
Remove the metal cover from slot P1. Grasp the metal cover and pull straight out.
