Redundancy Status |
Redundancy Status can be Full
or Lost. Currently, all systems have n+1 power
supplies, where n is the number of power supplies that are
required for the system to work under fully loaded and stress
conditions.
Redundancy Status is Full when all
power supplies are working.
Redundancy Status is Lost with a
status of Critical when only one power supply is working or if
mixed power supplies are used.
Full redundancy is defined by system specification. Lost redundancy
means that there are no backup power supplies available to take over
for the minimum number required, but at least one power supply is
working.

Number of devices required for full redundancy | Your system has a number of power supplies defined for full redundancy. Currently, all systems have n+1 power supplies, where n is the number of power supplies that are required for the system to work under fully loaded and stress conditions. If the number of power supplies required for Full redundancy is three, redundancy is lost when one or two power supplies are working. |
Status |
Power supply status is indicated by the status icon for
components. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
Location | Displays the location where the power supply is installed. |
Type | Type of power supplied to the system. Type can be AC, DC, or from the voltage regulator module (VRM). |
Rated Input Wattage | Displays the input power rating for all power supplies on the system. |
Maximum Output Wattage | Maximum wattage that the power supply can deliver. |
Online Status |
Indicates if the power supply is currently delivering power to
the system (online) or whether the power supply is not supplying power
(offline).
Example online status values for a power supply in normal
condition are:
AC Power on, AC Power Switch on, PS OK, PS On, PS Fan OK,
Presence Detected
Example online status values for a power supply in critical
condition are:
AC Power off, AC Power Switch on, PS Failure, PS Off, PS Fan
Failure, Failure Detected, AC Lost

Event | Description |
Power Supply Warning | Indicates a power supply condition that should be addressed soon or at the next scheduled maintenance. |
Power Supply Critical | Power supply is operating outside of wattage limits. Take power supply offline. |
Power System Redundancy Degraded | The number of operational supplies has fallen below the number required for full redundancy. |
Power System Redundancy Lost | The number of operational power supplies has fallen below the number required for partial redundancy (redundancy degraded). Only the minimum number of power supplies required by the system is operational. In the event that the non-redundant power supplies fail, no power is delivered to the system. |
