HotSwap Card Cage Fan Removal
The power to the server does not have to be off to remove or replace a HotSwap Card Cage fan. Fans
numbered 2, 3, 4, and 5 are located in a four-fan assembly housing located on the left side of the server’s side
service bay.
CAUTION
Running the server for extended periods of time with a cooling fan removed may create hot
spots inside the server and shorten component life.
If other fans fail when one fan is removed, the system will halt.
To remove a fan from the server, perform the following step:
Identify the fan to be removed and pull it out of the Side Fan Assembly Housing. It will automatically
disconnect from its electrical outlet on the I/O Backplane.
NOTE
When one fan has failed (or is removed from the server) during operation, the system
automatically puts the remaining fans into high speed mode. The noise level of the server will
increase.
The following graphic shows a card cage fan being removed/replaced.
