modify your server hardware (e.g. installing/removing hot-plug power supply
units or hot-plug HDD modules).

Upgrades, updates and replacement of non-hot-pluggable components
are described in the “Options Guide” or in the service supplement and
may only be performed by authorized specialist personnel.
The hot-plug procedure increases the availability of system operation and
guarantees a high degree of data integrity and failsafe performance.

Hot-plug power supply units

A redundant power supply can be created by installing a second hot-
pluggable power supply unit (optional). If one power supply unit fails, the
other unit ensures operation can continue uninterrupted. The defective
power supply unit can be replaced online.
