6-5 Power Supply
The SuperServer 6015T-T/6015T-INF has a single 980 watt power supply. This
power supply has the capability of operating at 100 - 240 input volts. Depress both
main power buttons on the front of the chassis and then unplug the AC power cord
to completely remove power from the system before removing the power supply.
Power Supply Failure
If the power supply unit fails, the system will shut down and you will need to replace
the power supply unit. Replacement units can be ordered directly from Supermicro
(PWS-981-1S - see contact information in Chapter 1).
Replacing the Power Supply
1. Accessing the inside of the system
To replace a power supply, you must fi rst remove the top chassis cover. To do so,
fi rst release the retention screws that secure the unit to the rack. Grasp the two
handles on either side and pull the unit straight out until it locks (you will hear a
"click"). The top cover of the chassis is secured with four screws: two at the top
rear of the cover and one on each side lip, also near the back. Remove all four,
then place both thumbs in the indentations and push the cover back until it slides
off. You can then lift the top cover from the chassis to gain full access to the inside
of the server.
2. Removing the power supply
First unplug the power cord from the system. To remove the failed power unit,
remove the two screws on the back of the power supply, which secure it to the
chassis. You can then lift the unit straight out of the chassis. (See Figure 6-5.)
3. Installing a new power supply
Replace the failed unit with another unit of the same wattage. You must replace
it with the exact same power supply. Carefully insert the new unit into position in
the chassis and secure it with the two screws at the rear of the unit. Before recon-
necting the power cord, make sure the power switch on the power supply is in the
off position. Then reconnect the power cord, replace the chassis top cover and
push the unit back into the rack. Finish by turning the power switch on the power
supply on, and then depress the power buttons on the front of the chassis.
