You can replace either of the two 675-watt hot-swap redundant
power supplies in the SAN Volume Controller 2145-CF8 node.
These redundant power supplies operate in parallel, one continuing
to power the node if the other fails.
DANGER
Multiple
power cords. The product might be equipped with multiple power cords.
To remove all hazardous voltages, disconnect all power
cords.
Ensure that you are aware of the
procedures for handling static-sensitive devices before you replace
the power supply.
Important: You can hot swap the
power supply. However, using MAP 5350 to power off the node through
proven methods avoids risking an abrupt power failure on the node,
which avoids the possible corruption of data. This procedure assumes
that you have turned off the node using MAP 5350, or that if you did
not turn off the node, you used MAP 5350 to ensure that the data is
mirrored and synchronized, and that there are no dependent virtual
disks (VDisks). See
MAP 5350: Powering off a SAN Volume Controller node.
To
replace the SAN Volume Controller 2145-CF8 power
supply, perform the following steps:
- Read the safety information to which Preparing to remove and replace parts refers.
- Grasp the handle on the rear of the power supply, as shown
in Figure 1, and
slide the power supply forward fully into the node until it clicks
in place. Verify that the power supply connects firmly into the power-supply
connector.

- Attach the cable-retention bracket to the power cord from
the 2145 UPS-1U and
connect the cord to the power-cord connector on the power supply,
as described in Replacing the SAN Volume Controller 2145-CF8 cable-retention brackets.
- If necessary, turn on the node.
- To the left of the power-cord connector on each power supply,
verify that the ac power LED, as shown by 1 in Figure 2, and the dc power
LED ( 2 ) are lit.
The green
power LEDs indicate that the power supply is operating correctly.
A power-supply error is indicated by the amber power-supply error
LED ( 3 ).
