42 PowerEdge M1000e Technical Guide
When starting a chassis from cold boot with a mix of 110VAC and 220VAC power supplies, the CMC
will power up the first-detected power supply in slots 1-3 and slots 4-6 and will choose the lead
voltage reference. All power supplies must match the lead voltage reference for the system to allow
the power supplies to be powered on.
If switching from 220VAC to 110VAC or vice versa, you will need to remove all power from the
chassis and power the chassis with the new voltage line.
Behavior of AC supplies with DC supplies
You cannot combine 2360W or 2700W AC power supplies with 2700W DC power supplies to power
the M1000e chassis.
If you insert a DC power supply into a chassis running on AC power, the system will not allow
the DC power supply to provide capacity to the system. The AC good light will illuminate, but the
DC good light will not.
