Thermal cooling The Secure Managed Client (SMC) - Storage Array uses extensive thermal monitoring to ensure component temperatures are kept low and acoustic noise is minimized. Airflow is from front to rear of the enclosure. Table 10. Thermal cooling Symptom If the ambient air is cool (below 25°C or 77°F) and the fans are observed to increase in speed then some restriction on airflow may be causing an additional internal temperature rise. Note: This is not a fault condition. Cause Action The first stage in the thermal control 1. Check the installation for any process is for the fans to airflow restrictions at either the automatically increase in speed when front or rear of the enclosure. A a thermal threshold is reached. This minimum gap of 2.5 cm (1 inch) may be caused by higher ambient at the front and 5 cm (2 inches) at temperatures in the local the rear is recommended. environment and may be perfectly 2.

Check that all blank modules are in place. 5. Reduce the ambient temperature. If the internal temperature measured in the airflow through the enclosure exceeds a preset threshold, a thermal alarm sounds. 1. Front operator's panel unit fault LED amber. 2. An amber LED is on for one or more PSUs. 1. Check to ensure that local ambient environment temperature is below the upper 35°C (95°F) specification. 2. Check the installation for any airflow restrictions at either the front or rear of the enclosure. A minimum gap of 2.5 cm (1 inch) at the front and 5 cm (2 inches) mm at the rear is recommended. 3. Check for restrictions due to dust build up; clean as appropriate. 4. Check for excessive recirculation of heated air from rear to front. Use in a fully enclosed rack installation is not recommended. 5. If possible, turn off the enclosure and investigate the problem before continuing. Drive carrier module faults Each Drive Carrier module has two LEDs: an upper (green) LED and a lower (amber) LED. v Under normal operation, the green LED is on and will flicker as the drive operates v Under normal operation, the amber LED will be: - Off if there is no drive present - Off as the drive operates - On if a drive fault is present Chapter 7.
