  3. Do you have additional storage expansion racks?
  4. Verify the setting of the following switches on each expansion rack. Each rack has:
    • One UEPO switch
    • Two PPSs
    • Zero to three battery enclosures
    Table 3. Switch settings and locations for storage expansion racks
    Switch Setting Location Figure reference
    UEPO red switch Off (down) Rack operator panel (front of rack)
    Note: Press the recessed switch towards the bottom. It will appear flat when off.
