6-5 Power Supply

6015P-TR/6015P-8R

The SuperServer 6015P-TR and 6015P-8R have a 700 watt redundant power supply

conﬁ guration consisting of two hot-swappable power modules. The power supply

modules have an auto-switching capability, which enables them to automatically

sense and operate with a 100V - 240V input voltage.

Power Supply Failure

If either of the two power supply modules fail, the other module will take the full

load and allow the system to continue operation without interruption. The Power

On LED on the control panel will turn amber and remain so until the failed module

has been replaced. Replacement modules can be ordered directly from Supermicro

(see contact information in the Preface). The power supply modules have a hot-

swap capability, meaning you can replace the failed module without powering down

the system.

Removing/Replacing the Power Supply

You do not need to shut down the system to replace a power supply module. The

redundant feature will keep the system up and running while you replace the failed

hot-swap module. Replace with the same model - SP700-1R (p/n PWS-0065),

which can be ordered directly from Supermicro (see Contact Information in the

Preface).

1. Removing the power supply

First unplug the power cord from the failed power supply module. To remove the

failed power module, ﬁ rst locate the colored release tab (1). Push the tab to the

right (2) and then pull the module straight out with the handle provided (3) (see

Figure 6-5). The power supply wiring was designed to detach automatically when

the module is pulled from the chassis.

2. Installing a new power supply

Replace the failed hot-swap module with another SP700-1R power supply module.

Simply push the new power supply module into the power bay until you hear a click.

Finish by plugging the AC power cord back into the module.
