Replacing a hot-swap fan assembly
The server comes standard with six speed-controlled hot-swap cooling fans.
Attention: To ensure proper operation, replace a failed hot-swap fan within 30
seconds.
To install or replace a hot-swap fan, complete the following steps:
1. Touch the static-protective package that contains the new fan to any unpainted
metal surface on the server. Then, remove the new fan from the package.
2. Orient the fan over the fan slot in the fan cage assembly so that the fan
connector aligns with the connector on the system board.
