HotSwap Power Converter Fan Removal
The power to the server does not have to be off to remove or replace a HotSwap Power Converter fan. Fans
numbered 6 and 7 are located in the rear of the server.
To remove a fan from the server, perform the following steps:
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.
1. There are four screws attached to each corner of each fan. Loosen only the captive Torx-head screws
located diagonally across the face of the fan (upper left, lower right sides).
2. Grasp the extended screw-heads (or 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.
