Page 45 highlights

1. Be sure the fans are properly seated and working. a. Follow the procedures and warnings in the server documentation for removing the access panels and accessing and replacing fans. b. Unseat, and then reseat, each fan according to the proper procedures. c. Replace the access panels, and then attempt to restart the server. 2. Be sure the fan configuration meets the functional requirements of the server. Refer to the server documentation. 3. Be sure no ventilation problems exist. If you have been operating the server for an extended period of time with the access panel removed, airflow may have been impeded, causing thermal damage to components. Refer to the server documentation for further requirements. 4. Be sure no POST error messages ("POST error messages and beep codes" on page 114) are displayed while booting the server that indicate temperature violation or fan failure information. Refer to the server documentation for the temperature requirements for the server. 5. Access the IML to see if any event list error messages (on page 155) relating to fans are listed. 6. Replace any required non-functioning fans and restart the server. Refer to the server documentation for specifications on fan requirements. 7. Be sure all fan slots have fans or blanks installed. Refer to the server documentation for requirements. 8. Verify the fan airflow path is not blocked by cables or other material. Hot-plug fan problems are occurring Action: 1. Check the LEDs to be sure the hot-plug fans are working. Refer to the server documentation for LED information. NOTE: For servers with redundant fans, backup fans may spin up periodically to test functionality. This is part of normal redundant fan operation. 2. Be sure no POST error messages ("POST error messages and beep codes" on page 114) are displayed. 3. Be sure hot-plug fan requirements are being met. Refer to the server documentation. All fans in an HP BladeSystem c-Class enclosure are operating at a high speed ...while fans in the other enclosures are operating at normal speed. Action: If all fan LEDs are solid green, but the fans in this enclosure are operating at a higher speed than normal, then access more information from the Onboard Administrator or iLO and iLO 2. All fans in an HP ProLiant G6 server are not spinning or are not spinning at the same speed Action: For all servers, access the IML. If no error messages are listed, then the fans are operating as designed. If an error message is listed in the IML, then perform the suggested procedure to correct the error. For all server blades, access more information from the Onboard Administrator or iLO and iLO 2. Hardware problems 45
