Chapter 5: Chassis Setup and Maintenance
Replacing the Power Distributor
Redundant server chassis that are 2U or greater require a power distributor. The
power distributor provides failover and power supply redundancy. In the unlikely
event you must replace the power distributor, do following
1. Power down the server and remove the plug from the wall socket or power
strip.
2. Remove all cable connections to the power supply from the motherboard,
backplane, and other components. Also, remove both power supplies.
3. Locate the power distributor between the power supply and the fan row.
4. Remove the three screws securing the power supply.
5. Gently pull the power distributor from the chassis. Gently guide all the cables
through the power distributor housing.
6. Slide the new power distributor module into the power distributor housing.
Make that you slide the cables through the bottom of the housing.
7. Reconnect all the power cables, replace the power supply, and insert the plug
into the wall.
