V CAUTION!
The actions described in this section may only be performed by
personnel with the appropriate technical training. Any unauthorized
openings and improper repairs could expose the user to risks
(electric shock, fire hazards) and could also damage the equipment.
Please observe the safety information in chapter “Important Infor-
mation” on page 17.
In order to replace a defective fan, it is necessary to open the fan cover, because
the fans are not directly accessible (see section “Opening/Closing the Fan
Cover” on page 81).
V CAUTION!
The fan cover must be replaced as soon as possible for purposes of
cooling, to comply with EMC regulations (regulations regarding electro-
magnetic compatibility) and to prevent fires. The fan cover must not
remain open for longer than 15 minutes.
The server is equipped with five fan units, consisting of two separate hot-plug
fans.
A predicted fan fault is reported by the Global Error Indicator lighting up on the
front and rear of the server. When the fan cover is open, the faulty fan can be
identified by the corresponding LED (figure 23 on page 79) and can be replaced
while the system is running.
