If the power supply unit fails, the system will shut down and you will need to replace
the power supply unit. Replacement units can be ordered directly from Supermicro
(see contact infomation in Chapter 1).
Replacing the Power Supply
To replace a power supply, you must first remove the chassis cover (follow the
procedure as described in Section 6-3).
1. First unplug the power cord from the system.
2. Remove the cover from the chassis (see Figure 6-2).
3. To remove the failed power unit, remove the two screws on the back and the
two screws on the front of the power supply, which secure it to the chassis.
You can then lift the unit straight out of the chassis.
4. Replace the failed unit with another power supply unit of the same wattage.
You must replace it with the exact same model.
5. Carefully insert the new unit into position in the chassis and secure it with the
two screws at the rear and the two screws at the front of the unit.
6. Reconnect the power cord, replace the chassis cover and push the unit back
into the rack.
7. Finish by depressing the power button on the control panel to power up the
system.
