Well I'm confused here, according to http://www.sun.com/servers/entry/x4100/arch-wp.pdf

Quote:
Sun Fire X4100 and X4200 servers are powered by dual redundant hot-swappable power supplies.
How did you get an x4100 with only one?

Base config for a X4100 has only one power supply.

ie:
Sun Fire X4100 x64 Server: 1 * AMD Opteron Model 248 (2.2 GHz 1 MB)
processor, 2 * 512 MB PC3200 DDR-400 memory, no disk, 1 * Power Supply
Unit, Service Processor, 4 * 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports, 3 * USB 1.1 ports,
1 * 64-bit/133MHz PCI-X slot, 1 * 64-bit/100MHz PCI-X slot, RoHS-5 Compliant
