Installing the system fan cage
For proper cooling, the server requires that all fans in the server be operating at all
times.
Attention:
v To ensure proper server operation, if a fan fails, replace the fan immediately.
v
Make sure the power cable on the backplane is well-routed so it will not block the
fan cage while installing.
To install the system fan cage, complete the following steps:
1. Align the system fan cage with the guide rails on the fan cage bracket.
2. If you have removed any cable(s), connect them all except the signal cable.
3. Lower the system fan cage into the fan cage bracket until the system fan cage
clicks into place.
Notes:
a. Make sure no cables are pinched.
b. (For 3.5-inch hard disk drive models only) It will be easier for the installation
if you temporary remove the power cable on the hot-swap backplane.
