PROBLEM OVERVIEW: Fan Tray Failure

WHAT STATE SHOULD THE SYSTEM BE IN TO BE READY TO PERFORM THE RESOLUTION ACTIVITY? : n/a

TASK COMPLEXITY: 1

TIME ESTIMATE: 30 minutes

WHAT ACTION DOES THE CUSTOMER NEED TO TAKE:

1a) If the system is a Sun Fire E2900 or v1280, REMOVE the left input air filter.

• These systems are qualified to operate without this filter and Sun Alert 1021703.1 provides the basis for this action.
• Please insert the comment "FILTER REMOVED" in the comments section of the ATR feedback for this action plan to validate this action was taken.
• This system should also be operating at least ScApp 5.20.14 (Patch 114527-15); See Sun Alert 1021703.1 for justification.

1b) If system is a Netra 1280 or 1290, the customer is required to order and replace left input air filter as soon as possible (PN X6806A-Z).

• This system is not qualified to operate without filter and filter should be cleaned and/or replaced every 3-6 months. Sun Alert 1021703.1 provides the basis for this action.
• Purchase of this part is customer's responsibility and filters should be inspected and cleaned or replaced as necessary every 3-6 months by the customer as documented in Periodic Maintenance instructions in the Sun Fire V1280/Netra 1280 Systems Service Manual (pdf) and the Netra 1290 Server Service Manual (pdf) section C-1.
• The Sun Fire E2900/V1280 and Netra 1280 Systems Filter Installation Guide (pdf) provides instructions for how to replace filter (and replacement should be performed by customer).
• System should also be operating at least ScApp 5.20.14 (Patch 114527-15); See Sun Alert 1021703.1 for justification.
