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 dc power to the server does not have to be off to install or replace a hot-swappable power
supply.
Power Supply Loading Guidelines
The supported configuration of the server requires a minimum of one power supply installed in
either slot P0 or slot P1. You can install a second, optional hot-swappable power supply to provide
1+1 capability. The left side (viewed from the rear of the chassis) hot-swappable power supply is
identified as P0, and the second hot-swappable power supply is identified as P1 (
).
CAUTION:
When a second power supply is not used, the empty power supply slot must remain
covered with the supplied metal filler panel. Failure to observe this caution can result in damage
due to overheating

2.
Support the power supply with both hands, and slide it into the empty slot until it clicks into
place (
