Install a hot-swap power supply
Use this information to install a hot-swap power supply.
The standard shipping has only one power supply installed in the server. For redundancy and hot-swap support, you must install an additional hot-swap power supply. Certain customized models might be shipped with two power supplies installed.
Ensure that the devices that you are installing are supported. For a list of supported optional devices for the server, go to: Lenovo ServerProven website
Ensure that the two power supplies installed on the server have the same wattage.
- If you are replacing the existing power supply with a new power supply of different wattage, attach the power rating label that comes with this option onto the existing label on the top cover near the power supply.Figure 1. Hot-swap power supply label on the cover
