Troubleshooting Power Supplies
Problem
l System-status indicators are amber.
l Power-supply fault indicators are amber.
l Front-panel status LCD indicates a problem with the power supplies.
Action
1. Run the appropriate online diagnostics test. See Using Server Administrator Diagnostics.
2. Locate the faulty power supply.
The power supply's fault indicator is lit. See Power Indicator Codes.
You can hot-plug the power supplies. One power supply must be installed for the system to operate. The system is in the redundant mode when two power
supplies are installed. Remove and install only one power supply at a time in a system that is powered on. Operating the system for extended periods of time
with only one power supply installed, without a power supply blank installed, can cause the system to overheat.
Remove the faulty power supply. See Power Supplies.
3. Ensure that the power supply is properly installed by removing and reinstalling it. See Power Supplies.
If the problem persists, see Getting Help.
