How many powersupplly must I at least have to run a UCS 5108 full of B200 M2 blade servers. I trying to do some form of power loading matrix. In order to track the load on each power supply at an incident.

Hello Tobias,

A single PSU might be enough but there are other factors that should be considered to build the system.

Power calculator tool can help you out in making that decision.

Be sure to set your power policy to "Non Redundant" if you don't use 3 (n+1) or 4 (Grid) power cords.
