Installing Hot-Swap Power Supply Units

The supported configuration of the hp Integrity cx2600 Server requires that two power supplies
be installed. During normal operations, the two power supplies share the load. Each provides
power through a separate power rail. A single power supply can provide all power needed for
normal operations, but a second power supply is installed to provide backup capability.
Hot-swappable power supplies 1 and 2 are located at the rear of the chassis. The power supplies
are identical and interchangeable.
NOTE:
A hot-swappable device does not require interaction with the operating system before
the device is removed from or installed into the server. If the second power supply is functioning
correctly, you can power off and remove a power supply with no effect on server operations.
The power to the server (other power supply) does not have to be off to remove or replace a
hot-swap power supply.

Removing and Replacing a Hot-Swap Power Supply

A power supply can be replaced while the server is installed in a rack, with the server operating
normally. Removal and installation of a power supply will have no effect on operations if the
other power supply is functioning correctly.
To install a hot-swap power supply, follow these steps:
