Input Power Information and
Precautions
The Sun SPARC Enterprise T5120 and T5220 servers are available in the following
input power configurations:
Two redundant, hot-swappable AC power supplies
■
Two redundant, DC power supplies
■
Note – Safety agency requirements prohibit manufacturers from changing a product
from AC input to DC input or from DC input to AC input after the product has been
removed from the agency approved manufacturing site.
Note – The DC version of the server must be installed in a restricted-access location.
According to the intent of the National Electrical Code, a restricted-access location is
an area intended for qualified or trained personnel only and has access controlled by
a locking mechanism, such as a key lock or an access card system.
When each power supply is connected to a separate power source, the server
continues to operating under the following fault conditions:
A power source failure that removes input power from one of the power supplies.
■
Failure of one of the power supplies.
■
Service actions which require removal of one of the power supplies.
■
Refer to the Sun SPARC Enterprise T5120 and T5220 Servers Site Planning Guide for
input power specifications.
Note – Input AC/DC power cables: To avoid missing initialization messages, do not
attach power cables to the power supplies until you have finished connecting the
data cables, and have connected the server to a serial terminal or a terminal emulator
(PC or workstation). The server goes into Standby mode and the ILOM service
processor initializes as soon as the input power cables are connected to the power
source.
