## How to Remove a Power Supply

1. If the server is in a rack with a cable management arm attached, swivel open the cable management arm to view the power supplies.
2. Identify which power supply you will replace. Each power supply has one fault LED that you can view from the rear of the server:

   - LED is off: Power supply is operating properly.

   - LED is on (amber): Power supply is faulty and should be replaced.

3. Disconnect the AC power cord from the power supply that you are replacing.

   The power supplies are hot-swappable, so you do not have to shut down the server or disconnect the other power supplies.

   Note - The Service Action Required LEDs on the front panel and back panel blink when a power supply is unplugged. For the LED locations and descriptions, see Front Panel LEDs.

4. Hold the power supply handle and push the thumb latch toward the center of the power supply.
5. While continuing to push on the latch, use the handle to pull the power supply and remove it from the chassis.
6. If necessary, prepare the server for operation. See How to Prepare the Server for Operation.
