Removal and Replacement Procedures 2-13 System Fan Basket Assembly The system fan basket assembly is comprised of two components: Plastic system fan basket Metal system fan basket-and-cable bracket The plastic basket holds the system fans in place. The metal bracket secures the basket and holds the fan cables in place. Before removing a system fan basket assembly, power must be removed from the server. Inadequate cooling will occur when both fans in a fan basket are removed. WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, the installation of options other than hot-plug power devices should be performed only by individuals who are qualified in servicing computer equipment and trained to deal with products capable of producing hazardous energy levels. CAUTION: Never remove both hot-plug fans from one system fan basket while the server is powered up. Overheating and damage to hardware could result. If the appropriate Compaq software drivers are installed, the operating system software will initiate a power shutdown in the event of overheating. To remove the system fan basket: 1. Perform the preparation procedures. See "Powering Down the Server" earlier in this chapter. 2. Remove the hot-plug system fans. See "Hot-Plug System Fans" earlier in this section. 3. Loosen the thumbscrew that holds the system fan basket to the chassis. 4. Remove the system fan basket from the chassis. 2 1 Figure 2-6.
