Fans
Two 10-cm blower fans provide the cooling for the SuperServer 6016T-T. The chas-
sis includes air seals under the blower fans and at the chassis cross section, which
separates the drive bay area from the serverboard area of the chassis to promote
better airfl ow. It is highly important that the air seal is properly installed and making
a good seal in order for the cooling air to circulate properly through the chassis.
The fans can adjust their speed according to the heat level sensed in the system,
which results in more effi cient and quieter fan operation. Fan speed is controlled
by a setting in BIOS (see Chapter 7).
System Fan Failure
If a fan fails, the ambient air temperature in the chassis will rise and activate the
overheat LED on the control panel. You will need to power down the system to
replace this fan with one of the same type (p/n FAN-0059L4). Contact your vendor
or Supermicro for information on replacement fans.
Replacing System Cooling Fans
Remove the chassis cover to see which of the two fans have stopped work-
1.
ing.
Turn off the power to the system and unplug the AC power cord.
2.
Uplug the failed fan's cable from the serverboard.
3.
Unscrew the failed fan from the chassis and pull it completely out from the
4.
serverboard.
Replace the failed fan with an identical 10-cm, 12 volt fan. Position the new
5.
fan in its proper place and secure it to the chassis with the screws you re-
moved previously.
After the new fan has been installed, plug the fan cable back into the same
6.
chassis fan header on the serverboard you removed it from.
Power up the system and check that the fan is working properly and that the
7.
overheat LED on the control panel has turned off.
Replace the top panel of the chassis.
