Citrix ADC MPX

Replace an AC power supply

Most Citrix ADC MPX platforms can accommodate two power supplies. Some platforms can accom-

modate four power supplies. All Citrix ADC appliances function properly with a single power supply,

except the appliances that can accommodate four power supplies. These appliances need two power

supplies for proper operation. The other power supply serves as a backup. All power supplies must

be of the same type (AC or DC).

Note: If the appliance has only one power supply, you have to shut down the appliance before replac-

ing the power supply. With two power supplies, you can replace one power supply without shutting

down the appliance, providedthe otherpower supply is working. With four power supplies, you can re-

place one or two power supplies without shutting down the appliance, provided the other two power

supplies are working.

To install or replace an AC power supply on a Citrix ADC appliance:

1. Align the semicircular handle perpendicular to the power supply. Loosen the thumbscrew and

press the lever toward the handle and pull out the existing power supply, as shown in the fol-

lowing figure.

Note: The illustration in the following figures might not represent the actual Citrix ADC appli-

ance.
