Remove a power supply

About this task

There are two power supplies. The power supplies are installed in the top and bottom nodes, and the top power supply is installed upside-down. This procedure works for removing either power supply, however, the direction in which the retention bail and release handle are pressed is reversed for the upside-down power supply.
NOTE:It is not necessary to power off the system to remove a power supply.

Steps

  1. Verify that both power supply cable retention bails are securely in place and both power supplies are powered on.
  2. Rotate the power cable retention bail to the left (to the right for the upside-down power supply). Remove the power cable from the power supply.

  3. Push and hold the orange release tab to the left (to the right for the upside-down power supply) and grasp the power supply by its handle. Remove the power supply by pulling it from the node.
