Replacing a fan in the 7063-CR2 system

To replace a fan in the IBM Power Systems HMC (7063-CR2) system, complete the steps in this

procedure.

Procedure

1. Ensure that you have the electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap on and that the ESD clip is plugged

into a ground jack or connected to an unpainted metal surface. If not, do so now.

2. Replace the fan in the system. The top side of the fan assembly has an arrow that shows the airflow

direction; the metal alignment plate is the bottom of the fan assembly. Ensure that you align the fan

housing under the internal fan rails. Push the fan into the system until the fan is fully seated.
