Power supply units PSU specifications The power supply unit (PSU) is an internal hardware component which supplies power to the components in the system.
Hot spare feature Your system supports the hot spare feature that significantly reduces the power overhead associated with power supply unit (PSU) redundancy. When the hot spare feature is enabled, one of the redundant PSUs is switched to the sleep state. The active PSU supports 100 percent of the system load, thus operating at higher efficiency. The PSU in the sleep state monitors output voltage of the active PSU.
Steps Align the PSU blank with the PSU slot and push it into the PSU slot until it clicks into place. Figure 37. Installing a power supply unit blank Next steps 1. Follow the procedure listed in After working inside your system on page 28. Removing a AC power supply unit Prerequisites CAUTION: The system needs one power supply unit (PSU) for normal operation. On power-redundant systems, remove and replace only one PSU at a time in a system that is powered on. 1.
