1.

A system administrator has Dell EMC PowerEdge server with dual 750W PSUs in a "Not Redundant" configuration with hot spare
enabled. One PSU was accidentally removed from the server.

What is the expected behavior in this scenario?

The server will immediately shutdown as PSUs were configured in "Not Redundant" mode
