Replacing a hot-swap fan Your server comes with six hot-swap fans: two front fans (fans 5 and 6), two center fans (fans 3 and 4), and two rear fans (fans 1 and 2). The two front fans are also known as blowers. You do not need to turn off the power to the server to replace a hot-swap fan. Attention: To help ensure proper cooling, if a fan fails, replace it within 48 hours. The following illustration shows how to replace hot-swap fans. 94 xSeries 235 Type 8671: Hardware Maintenance Manual and Troubleshooting Guide
