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” (page 88)
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.
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:
1.
If rack-mounted, slide the server out from the rack until it stops. (See
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.
3.
Remove the metal cover from slot P1. Grasp the metal cover and pull it straight out.
