It's always best not to perform maintenance while the systems are running, but unless the circumstances are dire, do not simply press the power button to turn off a given server. Some other things to note
- Removal of a hot-swap drive bay should be done with extreme caution, and only after verifying the disk is indeed failed or the system is in a powered-off state
- The redundant power supplies in the Supermicro servers can safely be pulled from a running server.
- Ensure the power supply you are replacing has had it's failed light illuminated (system will likely also be making a continuous beep tone)
- Disconnect the power cable from the supply.
- Flip the lever to release the supply from the chassis.
- Ensure back clearance as you slowly remove (this will be tight).
- If ram, cpu, fans or any other hardware needs maintenance please first power off the box.
If at any point you are concerned about the steps required to perform physical maintenance, visit the online PDF manuals for the hardware we've acquired:
