Solved: 3515 redundant power supply and disk redundancy

What are the rules for 3515 appliances with regards to additional power supply and additional disk?

Same as for 3415 appliances (ie yes for the former and no for the latter?)

I think you are likely correct that the rules same as those for 3415 as previously noted by PM

They may order the drive as a cold spare. If they are getting one PS and one hard drive from Cisco, they should make sure to return the same.

Our PM confirmed it,

If you popped in a second power supply into the 3515, it would use it. If you popped in additional hard drives, they would not be used. Same as 3415.
