CAUTION: To avoid damage to server components, fan blanks must be installed in fan bays 1 and 2 in a single-processor configuration. The only two valid fan configurations are listed in the following table. Configuration 1 processor 2 processors Fan bay 1 Fan bay 2 Fan bay 3 Fan blank Fan blank Fan Fan Fan Fan Fan bay 4 Fan bay 5 Fan bay 6 Fan Fan Fan Fan Fan Fan For a single-processor configuration, four fans and two blanks are required in specific fan bays for redundancy. A fan failure or missing fan causes a loss of redundancy. A second fan failure or missing fan causes an orderly shutdown of the server. Installing more than the required number of fans in a single-processor configuration is not a supported configuration. For a dual-processor configuration, six fans are required for redundancy. A fan failure or missing fan causes a loss of redundancy. A second fan failure or missing fan causes an orderly shutdown of the server. The server supports variable fan speeds. The fans operate at minimum speed until a temperature change requires a fan speed increase to cool the server. The server shuts down during the following temperature-related scenarios: • At POST and in the OS, HP iLO performs an orderly shutdown if a cautionary temperature level is detected. If the server hardware detects a critical temperature level before an orderly shutdown occurs, the server performs an immediate shutdown. • When the Thermal Shutdown feature is disabled in RBSU, HP iLO does not perform an orderly shutdown when a cautionary temperature level is detected. Disabling this feature does not disable the server hardware from performing an immediate shutdown when a critical temperature level is detected. CAUTION: A thermal event can damage server components when the Thermal Shutdown feature is disabled in RBSU. Component identification 20
