Hot-swap power supply replacement
Follow these instructions to replace a power supply unit in the ThinkSystem VX7Y13 Series appliance.
The ThinkSystem VX7Y13 Series appliances use two power supply units. Those power supplies are
redundant when using 208 - 230V input power, allowing one power supply to meet the needs of the node.
Losing one power supply may not impact node operation; however, replace a failed power supply as soon as
possible to restore redundancy.
