6-3 System Fans
Three 8-cm hot-swap system fans and one exhaust fan provide the cooling for
the system. It is very important that the chassis top cover is properly installed and
making a good seal in order for the cooling air to circulate properly through the
chassis and cool the components.
System Fan Failure
Fan speed is controlled by system temperature via IPMI. If a fan fails, the remaining
fans will ramp up to full speed and the overheat/fan fail LED on the control panel will
turn on. Replace any failed fan at your earliest convenience with the same type and
model (the system can continue to run with a failed fan). Remove the top chassis
cover while the system is still running to determine which of the fans has failed.
Replacing System Fans
Removing a Fan
System power does not need to be removed since the fans are hot-pluggable. Replace
the failed fan with an identical 8-cm 12 volt fan (available from Supermicro).
1. Open the chassis and locate the faulty fan. Never run the server for an ex-
tended period of time with the chassis open.
2. Press the release tab on the fan and pull the fan upward.
3. Slide the new fan into the fan housing. Make sure the power connectors are
correctly aligned. The new fan will immediately activate.
Installing the Rear Fan
The rear fans must be installed after the serverboard and air shroud setup.
Installing Rear System Fans
1.
Confirm that the air shroud is correctly placed.
2. Slide the rear fan into the slot as illustrated. The fan release tab should be on
the side closest to the power supply.
3. Make sure that the fan is secure in the fan housing and the housing is cor-
rectly connected to the power supply.
