Verify that the fan status LED is steady green to indicate normal operation. See
for more information.
Optionally, using the CLI, enter the
fanShow
command or
chassisShow
command to display the
power supply status.
You can also use Web Tools to view the fan status.
Replacing the HPE SN6000B or SN3000B 16Gb FC Switch power supply
and fan assembly
The fans are fixed inside the combined power supply and fan FRU to provide the airflow needed to cool
the switch. Each FRU contains two fans. The system software measures and sets fan speed through the
tachometer interface.
The SN3000B switch comes with one power supply and fan assembly. Fabric OS identifies the
assemblies from right to left on the nonport side. Even though they are contained within a single unit, the
power supply and fan components are identified separately. In the
chassisShow
command they are
identified as Power Supply Unit:1 and Fan Unit:1.
The SN6000B switch has two power supply and fan assemblies. The two power supply and fan
assemblies are hot-swappable if replaced one at a time. They are identical and fit into either slot.
NOTE:
When replacing the power supply and fan assembly in an SN3000B 16Gb FC Switch that has only
one, the switch must be powered off prior to replacing the assembly.
Power supply and fan assemblies
shows the power supply and fan assemblies on the nonport side of a
switch with two assemblies. The standard SN3000B 16Gb FC Switch includes a single power supply and
fan assembly. Fabric OS identifies the assemblies from right to left as assemblies 1 and 2. (The actual
appearance of the switch may differ slightly from this illustration, but the locations are correct.)
