PROBLEM OVERVIEW:  Faulty T2000 Power supply

WHAT STATE SHOULD THE SYSTEM BE IN TO BE READY TO PERFORM THE RESOLUTION ACTIVITY? :
If no redundant power is available shutdown system and power off unit. Otherwise the server's redundant hot-swappable power supplies enable you to remove and replace a power supply without shutting the server down (while server is running), provided that the other power supply is online and working.

NOTE: If a power supply fails and you do not have a replacement available, leave the failed power supply installed to ensure proper air flow in the server.

WHAT ACTION DOES THE ENGINEER NEED TO TAKE:
Replacing only one power supply in a dual power configuration.

1. Identify which power supply (0 or 1) requires replacement.  A lighted amber LED on a power supply indicates that a failure was detected. You can also use the showfaults command at the sc> prompt.

2. At the sc> prompt, issue the removefru command.  The removefru command indicates if it is OK to perform a hot-swap of a power supply. This command does not perform any action, but provides a warning if the power supply should not be removed because the other power supply is not providing power to the server. Example:

sc> removefru PSn (Note: n is 0 or 1)
Are you sure you want to remove PS0 [y/n]? y
<PSn> is safe to remove.

3. Gain access to the rear of the server where the faulty power supply is located.

4. At the rear of the server, release the cable management arm (CMA) tab and swing the CMA out of the way so you can access the power supply.

5. Disconnect the power cord from the faulty power supply.

6. Grasp the power supply handle and push the power supply latch to the right.

7. Pull the power supply out of the chassis.

8. Align the replacement power supply with the empty power supply bay.

9. Slide the power supply into bay until it is fully seated.

10. Reconnect the power cord to the power supply.

11. Close the CMA, inserting the end of the CMA into the rear left rail bracket.

12. Verify that the amber LED on the replaced power supply, the Service Required LED, and Rear-FRU Fault LEDs are not lit.

13. At the sc> prompt, issue the showenvironment command to verify the status of the power supplies.
