FIELD ENGINEER/ADMINISTRATOR INSTRUCTIONS:
- PROBLEM OVERVIEW:
How to replace Power Supplies and Front Fan Modules on a Sun Blade 6048 Modular System

- WHAT STATE SHOULD THE SYSTEM BE IN TO BE READY TO PERFORM THE
RESOLUTION ACTIVITY?:
You will need to replace a front fan module or power supply module if the module fails. A front fan module is located within each of the power supply modules, so you will need to remove the power supply associated with the fan module before replacing the module.
Do not leave a power supply slot vacant. Power supplies have integrated fans that will continue to supply cooling air even when the power supply is off. You can remove and replace a power supply from a powered-off system or from a powered-on system using a hot-swap procedure.

Note – When removing a power supply from the system, wait for all LED indicators on the power supply to turn off before reinstalling the power supply. If you do not follow this procedure, the system might log a false power supply fault condition.

- WHAT ACTION DOES THE FIELD ENGINEER/ADMINISTRATOR NEED TO TAKE:

Removing the Power Supply Modules and Front Fan Modules

Note - Remove only one power supply at a time. One power supply must be in the system at all times to supply power to the system.

Note - You will need to replace the power supply that you removed within one minute to ensure proper system operation.

1. In the front of the chassis, locate the power supply to be removed or the power supply that contains the front fan module that you plan to replace.
2. Press and hold the green button on top of the power supply handle frame.
3. Rotate the power supply handle away from the power supply and down.
4. Pull the power supply out of the chassis approximately 10 cm.
5. Choose the instructions below that correspond to the module that you want to replace:
- If you are replacing the whole power supply: While supporting the bottom of the power supply module with both your hands, pull the power supply all the way out of the chassis.
- If you are planning to replace the fan module only :
a. You do not need to remove the power supply from the system any further.

Caution - The fan will continue spinning for a moment after the power supply is disconnected. Be careful not to insert a finger or other object into the fan while it is still spinning.

b. With one hand, press together the two latches on top of the fan module and pull the module upward.
c. Grasp the module with the other hand as soon as possible and remove the module from the power supply.

Installing the Power Supply Modules and Front Fan Modules

1. If you are replacing a front fan module, insert the fan module into the power supply.
2. If necessary, pull the power supply handle out and away from the power
supply.
3. Align the power supply unit with the power supply slot.
Ensure that the power supply unit is facing up and that the five LED holes appear on the left when you are installing the power supply module.
4. In a smooth motion, slide the power supply into the power supply slot until the unit engages with the internal connectors.
