Ventilation Concept
The basic unit is kept cool by two fan units (two fans each), and the fans in the
power supply units (three fans in each PSU) and/or the fans in the PSU dummy
unit(s) (two fans in each dummy).
The fan units are accessible from the rear of the system and contain two fans
each.

When a fan in a fan or power supply unit/PSU dummy module fails, the amber
front identify LED (see
figure 14 on page 50
) on the front panel blinks. You can
find out which unit is defective by checking the fan status via the server mana-
gement software

Even though the system can continue operating with a defective fan, the
defective fan or power supply unit/PSU dummy module should be
replaced as soon as possible.
For how to replace a power supply unit/PSU dummy module, see
section
“Replacing a Power Supply Unit” on page 133
.
Due to the hot-swap architecture, replacement is also possible during operation.
