HotSwap Chassis Fan Removal
The power to the server does not have to be off to remove or replace a HotSwap Chassis fan. Fan number 0 is
in the front of the server and fan number 1 is at the rear of the server.
To remove a fan from the server, perform the following steps:
1. Check the fan LED located on the fan. If the LED is illuminated, the fan has failed.
NOTE
When one fan has failed (or is removed from the server), the system automatically puts the
remaining fan into high speed mode. The noise level of the server will increase.
2. Grasp the fan grill and gently pull toward you. The fan assembly will unplug from the electrical outlet
and slide out of the server.
CAUTION
Running the server for extended periods of time with a cooling fan removed may create hot
spots inside the server and possibly shorten component life.
If the other fan fails when one fan is removed, the system will halt.
