Note:
For accurate component identification, see Illustrated Back Panel Components
Breakdown.
A lit amber Fault-Service Required LED on a power supply indicates that a failure was
detected.
Alternatively, to list all known faults in the server, log in to the ILOM service processor from
the ILOM Fault Management Shell and issue the
fmadm faulty
command. For more
information, refer to "Oracle ILOM User's Guide for System Monitoring and Diagnostics" in
the Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) Documentation.
2. Prepare the system for fan module removal.
See Electrostatic Discharge Safety.
3. Gain access to the rear of the server where the power supplies are located.
4. Disconnect the power cord from the faulty power supply.
Note:
The fans of a failed power supply might still be spinning when the system is
powered on. The fans stop spinning when you disconnect the power cords.
5. Grasp the power supply handle and use your thumb to push the green power supply
release latch inwards, toward the handle [1]. Then pull the power supply out of the chassis
[2].
Caution:
When you remove a power supply, replace it with another power supply;
otherwise, the server might overheat due to improper airflow.
