PA-7050 does not have a warranty seal. Before You Begin • It is recommended that two people be available to mount the PA-5000 Series in a 19-inch rack. • Have a Phillips head screwdriver available.
Before installing the hardware, read the information in “Cautions and Warnings” on page 15. Figure 4 illustrates how rack mounting brackets are attached to the PA-5000 Series. You can attach the brackets using the holes at the front or the midpoint of the unit.
Align the mounting holes on the side of the device with holes in the rack rail. Make sure that rack rail holes are selected so that the PA-5000 Series is level. Insert mounting screws into the aligned holes. Tighten with a Phillips head screwdriver.
Figure 7. Power Connection for the PA-5000 Series To power up the PA-5000 Series, attach a power cable to each of the power supplies and plug each into a grounded wall outlet. The device has no power switch and is automatically powered when one or more power cables are connected to the device and to an AC power source.
WARNING: You must shut off the electric current to the DC feed wires before connecting or disconnecting the wires to the power supplies. Figure 8 shows the DC power connections for the PA-5000 Series. Wind the power wires around the screws and tighten to secure. The -48VDC connection is on the left and the 0VDC connection is on the right, as labeled when facing the power supply.

Interpreting the Power Supply LED The PA-5000 Series firewall has two power supplies and each power supply has an LED located above the power cord to indicate status. Table 8 describes the LEDs located on the back of each power supply.
To replace the DC PWR1 or PWR2 power supply: While the PA-5000 Series is running, loosen the screws that secure the power wires and remove the wires from the power supply that you need to replace, as shown in Figure 11.
Figure 12. DC Power Supply Replacement Replacing a Hard Disk or Solid State Drive The PA-5000 Series firewall has a bay that contains two 2.5-inch Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) hard disk drives or solid state drives (SSD). You must power down the firewall to replace either of the drives.

Replacing a Hard Disk or Solid State Drive Figure 13. Loosening the Thumbnail Screws for the Drive Bay Remove the metal plate that covers the disk drive bay. Push the button to the right of the drive to disengage the lever and release the drive. Figure 14.
Replacing a Hard Disk or Solid State Drive Slide the replacement drive in, label side up, gently pushing it in until the lever begins to close. Gently close the lever until it clicks into place. Figure 16. Replacing a Drive Replace the metal plate and secure the thumb screws using a flat or Phillips head screw driver.
Replacing the Fan Tray and Air Filter required to select which drive is primary and then given the option to reboot. Upon rebooting, the system will add the secondary drive to the primary drive’s RAID array and then the system behavior will be the same as if an identical drive was replaced.

Replacing the Fan Tray and Air Filter Remove the metal plate that covers the fan tray. Hold the fan tray handle and slide the tray out. The air filter slides out along with the fan tray. Figure 18. Removing the Fan Tray and Air Filter Slide the replacement fan tray in until it engages.
Replacing the Fan Tray and Air Filter Replacing the Air Filter Inspect the air filter on a periodic basis. A dirty air filter restricts airflow in the unit, reducing the ventilation and effective cooling of the system. To maintain optimum system operation, Palo Alto Networks recommends that you replace the filter every 6 months.
