If the fan tray status LED glows in red color or the alarm LED glows in red or yellow color, use the CLI
to get information about the source of an alarm condition:
user@switch> show chassis alarms
If the CLI output lists only one fan failure and the other fans are functioning normally, the fan is most
likely faulty and you must replace the fan tray.
• Place your hand near the exhaust vents at the side of the chassis to determine whether the fans are
pushing air out of the chassis.
• If a fan tray is removed, both a warning alarm and a critical alarm may be displayed.
• The following conditions automatically cause the fans to run at full speed and also trigger the
indicated alarm:
• A fan fails (critical alarm).
• The switch temperature exceeds the
temperature warm threshold (warning alarm).
• The temperature of the switch exceeds the
temperature hot threshold (critical alarm and
automatic shutdown of the power supplies).
