NOTE: HPE ProLiant Gen9 power supplies are not supported in HPE ProLiant Gen10 servers.
Installing a hot-plug power supply (two power supply configuration)
CAUTION: All power supplies installed in the server must have the same output power capacity. Verify
that all power supplies have the same part number and label color. The system becomes unstable and
may shut down when it detects mismatched power supplies.
CAUTION: To prevent improper cooling and thermal damage, do not operate the server unless all
device bays are populated with either a component or a blank.
Procedure
1. To access the rear panel, release the cable management arm ( Releasing the cable management arm
on page 54).
2. Remove the blank.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the internal
system components to cool before touching them.
3. Install the power supplies into power supply bays 1 and 2 until each click into place.
To install power supplies in a four power supply configuration, see Installing additional redundant hot-
plug power supplies (four power supply configuration) on page 144.
4. Connect the power cord to the power supply.
For redundancy, connect the power supplies in bays 1 (blue) and 2 (orange) to separate AC circuits.
