Understanding How Power Management Works
Enabling or Disabling Power Redundancy
From global configuration mode, enter the power redundancy-mode combined | redundant commands
to disable or enable redundancy (redundancy is enabled by default). You can change the configuration
of the power supplies to redundant or nonredundant at any time.
to disable or enable redundancy (redundancy is enabled by default). You can change the configuration
of the power supplies to redundant or nonredundant at any time.
Specifying the combined keyword disables redundancy. In a nonredundant configuration, the power
available to the system is the combined power capability of both power supplies. The system powers up
as many modules as the combined capacity allows. However, if one supply should fail and there is not
enough power for all previously powered up modules, the system powers down those modules for which
there is not enough power.

Specifying the redundant keyword enables redundancy. In a redundant configuration, the total power
drawn from both supplies is at no time greater than the capability of one supply. If one supply
malfunctions, the other supply can take over the entire system load. When you install and turn on two
power supplies, each concurrently provides approximately half of the required power to the system. Load
sharing and redundancy are enabled automatically; no software configuration is required.

System log and syslog messages are generated.

Modules marked power-deny in the show power oper state field are brought up if
there is sufficient power.
