Remove a Fan Module
The fan modules are hot-service components that can be replaced if there are at least
nine operating fan modules. For the location of the fan modules, see “Fan Module
Locations” on page 20.
Caution - This procedure requires that you handle components that are sensitive to electrostatic
discharge. This discharge can cause server components to fail.
1.
Locate the faulty fan module that you want to remove from the server.
■
See “Rear Panel Components (Service)” on page 15 for the locations of the
fan modules in the server.
■
See “Determine Which Fan Module Is Faulty” on page 142 to locate a faulty
fan module.
2.
Determine if you can remove the fan module with the server running.
You can remove a fan module with the server running only if one fan module is faulty and if
you have a replacement fan module. If more than one fan module is faulty, you must shut down
the server.
■
If you can remove the fan module with the server running, go to Step 3.
■
If you cannot remove the fan module with the server running, see “Removing Power From
the Server” on page 53 to power down the server before continuing.
