Removing and replacing a hot-swap fan
Six fans cool the server. The fans are all redundant, hot-swappable, and interchangeable. If one fan unit
fails, then the other fans increase speed to compensate. The fan units are N+1 redundant, meaning that
the server has six fan units, but can operate with five fan units running.
CAUTION:
If more than one fan is removed or fails, the system does not shut down.
If the temperature sensors detect conditions outside of operating limits, the system shuts down.
Figure 31: Fan identification
The power supplies have built-in fans and are not controlled by the iLO MP.
