This document describes how to replace the power supply in the Sun Disk Shelf-24x3.5” SAS-2 and in the Sun Storage J4400 Array.



caution icon Caution - Only trained service personnel should remove the covers on this equipment.


This product is intended for restricted access, whereby access is controlled through the use of a means of security (for example, key, lock, tool, badge access), and personnel authorized for access have been instructed on the reasons for the restrictions and any precautions that they need to take.

This document assumes that you have:


ESD Precautions

When performing this service action, observe the following electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions:


Power Supply Components

Each chassis contains two hot-swappable, redundant power supplies. If one power supply is turned off or malfunctions, the other power supply maintains electrical power. Each power supply contains two internal fans that provide cooling for the system.

FIGURE 1 identifies the power supply components.



Note - FIGURE 1 shows the Sun Disk Shelf-24x3.5” SAS-2. On the Sun Storage J4400 Array, the connectors and LEDs on the SIM boards at the bottom of the system are arranged differently. However, the power supply connectors and LEDs identified in FIGURE 1 are the same for both systems.

caution icon Caution - Be careful to not damage the circuit board connector extending from the back of the power supply.


2. Place the failed power supply in the packing materials so that you can return it to Oracle for proper disposal.

3. Insert the new power supply into the chassis by completing the following steps (FIGURE 3):

a. Swing both ejection levers to the fully open position.

b. Align the power supply with the open slot and slide it into the chassis until it engages with the chassis connectors and the ejection levers begin to swing closed.

c. Simultaneously push both ejection levers toward the middle of the power supply to seat it in the chassis.

d. Tighten the two ejection lever captive screws to secure the power supplies.
