Removing a hot-swap ac power supply

The following procedure is for a Tier 1 customer replaceable unit (CRU).

Replacement of Tier 1 CRUs is your responsibility. If IBM installs a Tier 1 CRU at

your request, you will be charged for the installation. Service agreements can be

purchased so that you can ask IBM to replace these units.

Important: The file module has two power supplies for redundancy. Do not

replace a power supply while the file module is powered on. Both power supplies

are required to provide redundancy to the file module. Follow the procedures in

“Removing a file module to perform a maintenance action” on page 51 to power

off the file module before replacing a power supply.

To remove a power supply, complete the following steps.
