Setting the server power supply requirements
The server supports four power supply redundancy modes in UEFI System Utilities. To determine if your current server
hardware configuration can support a specific redundancy setting, use the HPE Power Advisor on the Hewlett Packard
Enterprise website (
http://www.hpe.com/info/poweradvisor/online).
• 1 + 1 Redundancy—In a two-power supply configuration, the server will continue to operate if one power supply fails. This
mode is not applicable in a four-power supply configuration.
• 2 + 2 Redundancy—In a four-power supply configuration, the server will continue to operate if two power supplies fail or if
one AC feed loses power.
• 3 + 1 Redundancy—In a four-power supply configuration, the server will continue to operate if a single power supply fails.
The server will initiate operating system shutdown if two power supplies fail. No AC power redundancy is possible.
• 4 + 0 Redundancy—In a four-power supply configuration, there is no power supply redundancy. The server consumes
more power than what redundancy can supply, and will initiate operating system shutdown if one or more power supplies
fail.
By default, the server is configured for 1 + 1 power redundancy.
To verify that the server is cabled properly for AC power redundancy, see
Removing and replacing the system board.
Procedure
1. Use the HPE Power Advisor (
http://www.hpe.com/info/poweradvisor/online) to determine the power draw of the
system and verify that the server will continue to operate redundantly in the default configuration.
To change the redundancy setting in the UEFI System Utilities, proceed with the following steps.
2. To access the UEFI System Utilities, press F9 during POST.
3. From the System Utilities screen, select System Configuration > BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU) > Advanced
Options.
4. Select the appropriate redundancy configuration from the Power Supply Requirements menu, and then press Enter.
5. Press F10 to Save or F12 to Save and Exit.
