Installing an AC hot-plug power supply

Procedure
  1. Remove the power supply blank (Rear panel components).

  2. Slide the power supply into the bay until it clicks into place.

  3. Connect the power cord to the power supply.
  4. To prevent the power cord from disconnecting when sliding the system in and out of the rack, secure the power cord in the strain relief strap attached to the power supply handle:
    1. Unwrap the strain relief strap from the power supply handle.
      CAUTION:

      Avoid tight bend radii to prevent damaging the internal wires of a power cord or a server cable. Never bend power cords and server cables tight enough to cause a crease in the sheathing.

    2. Secure the power cord with the strain relief strap. Roll the extra length of the strap around the power supply handle.

  5. Connect the power cord to the power source.
  6. Be sure that the power supply LED is green.
