Maintenance
This section describes what to do if a fan failure takes place.
When a fan failure occurs, you will be notified by a lit alarm LED within
the operation items at the front of the system (see section “Operation
Items” on page 2-8) which will extinguish when you replace the broken
fan. Additionally, you will be informed via e-mail notification, if your
server is configured appropriately.
You have to do the following to exchange the failed fan:
1.
Observe the fans and memorize the failed one (the fan not revolv-
ing is the broken one).
2.
Lift the handle of the broken fan (1) so that it protrudes from the
rest of the fan module.
3.
Take hold of the handle and unlock the respective fan module by
pressing the unlocking device with your thumb to the right (2).
4.
With the locking mechanism released, pull the fan module out of
the system (3).
Figure 5-3: Removal of fan module
This will sever the connection of the fan to the system.
For further details about what to do in case of a hardware malfunction
or an alarm, please refer to section “Troubleshooting” on page A-2.
High voltages
The system you are working on operates with voltages that
can be hazardous to your health.
Do not reach inside the system when removing a
power supply unit or when the unit is out of the sys-
tem.
