Power Supply Failure: Redundant Power (Two Modules)

The SuperServer 6026TT-BTRF/6026TT-BIBXRF/6026TT-BIBQRF has two 1400
watt power supply modules to provide redundant power for the system. If either
of the two power supply modules fail, the other module will take the full load and
allow the system to continue operation without interruption. The LED on the control
panel will fl ash slowly (about 4 seconds on and 4 off) and remain fl ashing until
the failed unit has been replaced. Replacement units can be ordered directly from
Supermicro (see contact information in the Preface). The power supply units have
a hot-swap capability, meaning you can replace the failed unit without powering
down the system.
Removing/Replacing the Power Supply (Figure 6-8)
1. Disconnect the AC power cord from the failed module.
2. Push the colored release tab to the side and pull the power module out with
the handle provided.
3. Replace the failed power supply module with the exact same model from
Supermicro.
4. Carefully insert the new module into position in the chassis and push it in until
fully seated. You should see the LED on the rear of the module turn amber
showing that power (from the backup module) is present.
