Power supplies, which exist in pairs, provide DC power to all of the Replication Engine components. If one power supply fails, the other supply carries the full load. This situation creates a risk of Replication Engine failure should the other power supply also fail.
- Prerequisites:
Deploy any rack anti-tilt mechanism before releasing the release buttons and extending the Replication Engine.
Before handling a component, touch a grounded surface to discharge any static electricity.
Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap to your wrist, and stand on an ESD mat while replacing components.
Make sure you have a similar replacement power supply available before you start the replacement procedure.
Each Replication Engine has a pair of power supplies that are located at the back of the Replication Engine. Power supplies are customer replaceable units (CRUs). Replacing a power supply does not require you to bring the Replication Engine offline, provided that the other power supply is online and working. The following figure identifies the location of the Replication Engine power supplies.

Note: To replace a power supply, you can access the faulted power supply from the back of the Replication Engine module. To access the power supply located in the bottom slot (PS-0), the CMA clip must be disconnected to enable the power supply to clear the support arm.
Note: Replacing the power supply does not require you to slide the Replication Engine into the extended rack position and can be performed while the Replication Engine is in the rack position.
Note: Ensure that the power strain relief strap on the power supply is positioned correctly such that there is proper clearance and the power supplies can be re-inserted into the power supply compartment without interference.
Note: Ensure that the power cable is routed correctly and there is no interference with the Replication Engine chassis.
Important! Do not remove the failed power supply until you have a replacement power supply to ensure proper airflow in the Replication Engine.
Note: For fan replacement, the Replaceable Unit list displays the names of each fan. Each power supply contains one fan, and each fan module contains two fans. If a fan fails in a power supply, replace the power supply. If a fan fails in a fan module, replace the fan module. The following list identifies the names of the fans and the corresponding customer replaceable unit (CRU).
