Cold redundant feature can run the system with optimum power efficiency by raising operating efficiency
of primary power supply unit and lowering that of redundant power supply unit in redundant power
configuration.
•
If power efficiency of power units is not optimized due to system configuration, this feature is disabled
automatically.
Cold redundant feature can be used under the following conditions:
•
Two power supply units must be installed for redundant configuration.
