power redundancy-mode {combined [force] | insrc-redundant | ps-redundant [single-input] | redundant}

no power redundancy-mode {combined [force] | insrc-redundant | ps-redundant [single-input] | redundant}

Syntax Description

combined	Specifies the combined power supply mode.
force	(Optional) Forces the device to choose the combined mode without prompting the user.
insrc-redundant	Specifies the input source redundancy mode.
ps-redundant	Specifies the power supply redundancy mode.
single-input	(Optional) Specifies a single power input.
redundant	Specifies the full redundancy mode.

Defaults

ps-redundant

Command Modes

Global configuration mode

Supported User Roles

network-admin

Release	Modification
4.2(1)	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

You can use the power redundancy-mode command only in the default virtual device context (VDC).

You can configure the power supplies with the following modes:

•Combined mode—This mode does not provide power redundancy. The available power for this mode is the total power capacity of all power supplies.

•Input source redundancy mode—This mode utilizes two electrical grids, each one powering a half module within each power supply. If one power grid goes down, each power supply continues to draw power through its other half module. The available power is the amount of power by the lesser of the two grids through the power supplies.

•Power supply redundancy mode—This mode provides an extra power supply in case an active power supply goes down. The power supply that can supply the most power operates in standby mode. The other one or two power supplies are active. The available power is the amount of power provided by the active power supply units.

•Full redundancy mode—This mode combines power supply redundancy and input source redundancy, which means that the chassis has an extra power supply and one half of each power supply is connected to one electrical grid while the other half of each power supply is connected to the other electrical grid. The available power is the lesser of the available power for power supply redundancy mode and input source redundancy mode.

This command does not require a license.

Examples

This example shows how to configure the power supply redundancy mode:

switch# config t

switch(config)# power redundancy-mode ps-redundant

This example shows how to disable the power supply redundancy mode:

switch# config t

switch(config)# no power redundancy-mode ps-redundant
