PROBLEM OVERVIEW: A Sun Fire X4450 Fan Module needs replacement

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

Six pairs of fan modules are located under the top cover door, providing N+1 cooling redundancy. Each fan module contains two fans mounted in an integrated, hot-swappable CRU.

If a fan module fails, replace the fan module as soon as possible to maintain server availability.

Fan modules are hot-swappable and can be removed and installed while the server is running without affecting the rest of the server's capabilities.

Removing a Fan Module
1. Extend the server into the maintenance position.

2. Unlatch the fan module door.

3. Identify the faulty fan module with a corresponding Service Required LED.

4. Using thumb and forefinger in between the two fans, pull the fan module up and out of the connector.

Installing a Fan Module
1. With the top cover door open, install the replacement fan module into the server (FIGURE 3-9).

2. Apply firm pressure to fully seat the fan module.

3. Verify that the Fan Fault LED on the replaced fan module is not lit.

4. Close the top cover door.

5. Verify that the Top Fan LED, Service Required LEDs, and the Locator LED/Locator button are not lit.
