hpasmcli, both powersupplies OK, but redundant says No ?

[mmfpbw]

Hi,

we have a server that is controlled by hpasmcli. The diagnostic shows that both PSU are OK but the redundant mode says No. How can that happen ? 

Many thanks.

Cheers

Matthias

Hi,

It depends on the Server model, what is the server model on which this command was run?

If you see the Wattage, its different for both the PSU.

For big servers like DL580 G7, the minimum required power supplies are two and for redundancy, four PSU is required.

Check the server model and its Power Requirements.

Thank You!
