Warning: If a lithium battery is installed in your system as a soldered part, only SGI
qualified service personnel should replace this lithium battery. For a battery of another type,
replace it only with the same type or an equivalent type recommended by the battery
manufacturer, or an explosion could occur. Discard used batteries according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Octane III Cluster Server Cooling
The SGI Octane III server is cooled using 12 fans (six on the front and six on the rear). The six
front fans push air into the enclosure while the rear six fans pull it out the back.
The system fan assemblies are located behind the front and rear panels on the enclosure.
Figure 1-5 on page 12 illustrates the fan locations on the system.
