Chapter 6: Advanced Chassis Setup
5015P-8/5015P-T
The SuperServer 5015P-8/5015P-T has a single 400 watt cold-swap power supply,
which is auto-switching capable. This enables it to automatically sense and operate
with a 100v - 240v input voltage. An amber light will be illuminated on the power
supply when the power is off. An illuminated green light indicates that the power
supply is operating.
Power Supply Failure
If the power supply module fails, the system will shut down and you will need to
replace the module. Replacements can be ordered directly from Supermicro (see
contact information in the Preface). As there is only one power supply module in
the 5015P-8/5015P-T, power must be completely removed from the server before
removing and replacing the power supply for whatever reason.
Removing/Replacing the Power Supply
1. Removing the power supply
First turn the power switch on the control panel off, then unplug the power cord from
the system. To remove the failed power module, fi rst locate the colored release
tab (1). Push the tab to the right (2) and then pull the module straight out with the
handle provided (3) (see Figure 6-5). The power supply wiring was designed to
detach automatically when the module is pulled from the chassis.
2. Installing a new power supply
Replace the failed power supply with another SP400-1R power supply module (p/n
PWS-0064). Carefully insert the new power supply into the open bay and push it
completely into the chassis until you hear a clicking sound, meaning it has been
fully inserted. Finish by reconnecting the AC power cord and depressing the power
button on the chassis front control panel to restart the system.
