This section describes how to hot swap the AC power supply in a P-7500 system. Hot swapping allows you to add or remove a power supply without powering down the system.The P-7500 system accommodates up to four hot-swappable AC power supplies in bays at the rear of the unit. Each power supply provides up to 650W of power. Two installed power supplies meet the P-7500 requirements. The other installed power supplies provide redundancy, load sharing, and increased system availability. They can be removed without directly affecting P-7500 system operation.Use this information in conjunction with the safety information contained herein and the safety guidelines listed in TIBCO Messaging Appliance P-7500 Hardware Installation.For your safety, before hot swapping P-7500 power supplies, review all safety warnings in this section.The following tools and equipment are required to remove and install a power supply in a P-7500 system:
3. Facing the rear of the P-7500 system chassis, identify the failed power supply by checking the bay that it is installed in, and checking that the Power LED on the power supply is off (refer to Figure 1).Figure 1 Power Supply LED Location
6. Grasp the metal handle on the power supply and firmly pull to slide the failed power supply out of the bay while holding the release located at the top right of the power supply (refer to Figure 2).Figure 2 Removing Power Supply from Chassis
5. Push the power supply into place until you feel its edge connector mate securely with the connector on the backplane (refer to Figure 3).Figure 3 Inserting a Power Supply
6. Tighten by hand the captive screw located above the AC-input power connector to secure the power supply in the chassis slot.If you encounter problems with the hot-swapped power supply installation, check these items:
− If the system temperatures rise rapidly, the system overheats and shuts itself down due to insufficient air flow. Monitor the system temperatures and chassis fan status by entering the show environment User EXEC command.
