Precautions for replacement
Note the following points when replacing a power supply unit:
There are two power supply units. Thus, the system can continue operating even
■
if one of the units fails. Do not, however, operate the system for an extended
period while one unit has failed.
When replacing multiple power supply units, replace one unit at a time. If
■
redundancy of the power supply unit cannot be assured, then system-stopped
maintenance must be performed.
Do not force push the power supply unit into its slot. If excessive force is applied,
■
other components or the chassis may be damaged.
