3.10 Power Supply
The system includes two hot-plug, 2000W power supply modules. These modules will
automatically sense and operate at an input voltage between 100v to 240v. Note that different
input voltages will result in different maximum power output levels.
In the event of a power module failure, the other power module will continue to power the
system on its own. Failed power supply modules can be replaced without powering-down the
system. Replacement modules can be ordered directly from Supermicro.
An amber light on the power supply is illuminated when the power is switched off. A green
light indicates that the power supply is operating.
Replacing the Power Supply
1. Unplug the AC power cord from the failed power supply module.
2. Push and hold the release tab on the back of the power supply.
3. Grasp the handle of the power supply and pull it out of its bay.
4. Push the new power supply module into the power bay until it clicks into the locked
position.
5. Plug the AC power cord back into the power supply module.
