Before you begin
• For more information about how to install an AC power supply, see
Installing AC Power
Supplies in Avaya Virtual Services Platform 9000,
NN46250-303.
Danger:
The AC power switches are double pole. The 9006AC power supply incorporates double pole
and neutral fusing.
Procedure
1. Determine power subsystem operating configuration based on module load requirements
and power redundancy needs.
2. Install the required power supplies in the power shelf bays.
3. Ensure the power switches are in the off position.
4. Determine the appropriate power cord based on the power supply operating power and site
requirements.
5. Connect the power cords to the power inlets and the power outlets.
6. For each power supply, turn the corresponding power switch to the on position.
If your chassis contains multiple power supplies, you can turn on the power supplies
simultaneously or one at a time. If you wait too long to turn on the additional power supplies,
one or more of the power supplies could stay or enter current limit based on the system load
condition until you power on a sufficient number of power supplies to guarantee the system
powers on.
7. Verify the power LEDs on each power supply illuminates green, and that the service and
fault LEDs are not illuminated.
8. Verify the cooling module LED on the CP modules illuminate green.
9. Verify that air flows from the cooling modules out through the vents of the chassis, and that
the power supply fans are operational.
The cooling module LED can illuminate red while the fans power to operational speed.
10. If the power supply LEDs remain off indicating loss of power, the service or fault LEDs are
illuminated and you cannot feel air flow from the chassis vents, or from each power supply,
turn the power switch to the off position to diagnose the problem, or replace the failed power
supply.
If the problem persists, contact the Avaya Technical Solutions Center.
Protecting modules
Virtual Services Platform 9000 modules are larger and heavier than Ethernet Routing Switch 8000
