Platinum Power Supplies in C7000 G1 Enclosure - Is this supported?

A power supply question from Bilgin:

***************

Hi all,

Indeed strange, based on provided link, it seems not supported but I remember a few customers use this mixed structure.

Event on some installations I used mixed half and full servers for thermal  zone #3 and it works.

But in my case as  I remember that c7000 was full installed.

BTW there is separator coming  to connect two half blades on the box. ( In case customer planning to put two Half Blade  near to full blade.)

This not supporting little bit confused me …

Yes you can use the 2400w ps in the c7000 G1 enclosure. You will want to upgrade the OA fw first. Also all 6 power supplies must be the 2400w model – we don’t support mixing and matching power supplies in the enclosure.
