Most standard models have one or two powersupplies as standard; workload-optimized models have all four standard.One power supply is sufficient when the total power budget is less than 675W. Use the IBM System x andBladeCenter® Power Configurator to determine the power requirements of your configuration. The PowerConfigurator is available at http://www.ibm.com/systems/bladecenter/resources/powerconfig.htmlFor power budgets under 675W, installing a second power supply provides redundancy. To install asecond power supply, use the IBM High Efficiency 675W Power Supply, part number 60Y0332. Installingfour power supplies ensures redundancy even with a fully loaded server. To install the third and fourthpower supplies, use the IBM 675W Redundant Power Supply Kit, part number 60Y0327. The powersubsystem is designed for N+N operation and hot-swap exchange. Having four power supplies installedallows for N+N redundancy, where N=2 (that is, a total of four power supplies where two are redundantbackups for the other two). The following table lists the part numbers.Standard models of MAX5 have two power supplies installed. No further power supplies are needed oravailable.Table 21.
