Under typical conditions, the above is the estimated runtime for the BPP modules. The
runtime can be extended by adding additonal BPP modules to a system.
Power Supply Failure
If a power supply or a fan in a power supply fails, the system management software will
notify you of the situation. In either case, you will need to replace the power supply
module with another identical one.
NOTE: Refer to www.supermicro/products/superblade for possible updates on part
numbers.
Installing a Power Supply
1. Insert a replacement unit into the empty power bay with the handle to the left.
WARNING: This left/right orientation depends on the power supply’s top or bottom location.
If you inadvertently put a power supply upside down in the lower slots, it can be VERY
difficult to remove the power supply.
2. Push unit all the way in until it is firmly seated.
3. Push the handle back into the closed position until it clicks into the locked position.
4. Move the locking clip away from the socket and reconnect the power cord.
Removing a Power Supply
First, make sure the power supply has been shut down. You can remove power from a
power unit via your system management software.
1. Remove the power cord from the power supply unit.
2. Release the locking clip to unlock the power supply module.
