Canister Description
The F2000 chassis contains redundant canisters that each contain and
connect system components. The major system components, such as
the interface cards, fan modules, CPUs, DIMMs, and M.2 Boot Drives,
are all contained inside the canisters.
The redundancy of the canisters is designed so that the system can run
on one canister in the event that the other canister fails. The canisters
can be hot-swapped to ensure that the F2000 is always available.
