Swap out a power supply - AFF A220 and FAS2700
Swapping out a power supply involves turning off, disconnecting, and removing the old
power supply and installing, connecting, and turning on the replacement power supply.
All other components in the system must be functioning properly; if not, you must contact technical support.
• The power supplies are redundant and hot-swappable.
• This procedure is written for replacing one power supply at a time.
Cooling is integrated with the power supply, so you must replace the power supply within
two minutes of removal to prevent overheating due to reduced airflow. Because the chassis
provides a shared cooling configuration for the two HA nodes, a delay longer than two
minutes will shut down all controller modules in the chassis. If both controller modules do
shut down, make sure that both power supplies are inserted, turn both off for 30 seconds,
and then turn both on.
• Power supplies are auto-ranging.
Steps
1. Identify the power supply you want to replace, based on console error messages or through the LEDs on
the power supplies.
2. If you are not already grounded, properly ground yourself.
3. Turn off the power supply and disconnect the power cables:
a. Turn off the power switch on the power supply.
b. Open the power cable retainer, and then unplug the power cable from the power supply.
c. Unplug the power cable from the power source.
4. Squeeze the latch on the power supply cam handle, and then open the cam handle to fully release the
power supply from the mid plane.
