Power Supply Configuration Modes
b. Combined mode—The total power is twice the lesser of the two power supply capacities.
For example, suppose you have the following usage figures configured:
Power supply 1 = 2500 W
Additional Power supply 2 = not used
Current Usage = 2000 W
Current capacity = 2500 W
Then the following three scenarios will differ as specified (see Table 18-2):
Scenario 1: If 1800 W is added as power supply 2, then the capacity increases to 3600 W.
Reason: 3600 W is twice the minimum (1800 W).
Scenario 2: If 2200 W is added as power supply 2, then the current capacity increases to
4400 W.
Reason: 4400 W is twice the minimum (2200 W).
Scenario 3: If 3000 W is added as power supply 2, then the current capacity increases to
5000 W.
Reason: 5000 W is twice the minimum (2500 W).
2. When you change the configuration from combined to redundant mode and the system detects a
power supply that has a capacity lower than the current usage, the power supply is shut down. If both
power supplies have a lower capacity than the current system usage, the configuration is not allowed.
Several configuration scenarios are summarized in Table 18-3.
Scenario 1: You have the following usage figures configured:
Power supply 1 = 2500 W
Additional Power supply 2 = 1800 W
Current Usage = 2000 W
Current mode = combined mode (so current capacity is 3600 W)
You decide to change the switch to redundant mode. Then power supply 2 is shut down.
2 2500 2000 2200 2200 Capacity becomes 2200 W.
3 2500 2000 3300 2500 Capacity remains the same.
