Moving the power supplies

You must move the power supply from the impaired controller module to the replacement controller module when you replace a controller module.

About this task

You can use the following steps to move the power supplies to the replacement controller module.

  1. Remove the power supply:
    1. Rotate the cam handle on the left of the power supply so that it can be used to pull the power supply out of the chassis.
    2. Press the blue locking tab to release the power supply from the chassis.
    3. Using both hands, pull the power supply out of the chassis, and then set it aside.
  2. Assemble the replacement controller module: On the replacement controller module, open the air duct and remove the empty risers from the controller module using the steps:
    1. Press the locking tabs on the sides of the air duct in toward the middle of the controller module.
    2. Slide the air duct toward the back of the controller module, and then rotate it upward to its completely open position.
    3. Rotate the riser locking latch on the left side of riser 1 up and toward air duct, lift the riser up, and then set it aside.
    4. Repeat the previous step for the remaining risers.
  3. Move the power supply to the new controller module, and then install it.
  4. Using both hands, support and align the edges of the power supply with the opening in the controller module, and then gently push the replacement power supply into the controller module until the locking tab clicks into place.
    The power supplies will only properly engage with the internal connector and lock in place one way.
    Attention
    To avoid damaging the internal connector, do not use excessive force when sliding the power supply into the system.
  5. Repeat the preceding steps for any remaining power supplies.
