Troubleshooting blower modules

Prerequisites

CAUTION:The blower modules are hot swappable. Remove and replace only one blower module at a time in a system that is turned on. Operating the system without all four blower modules for extended periods of time can cause the system to overheat.

Steps

  1. Locate the faulty blower module using the back panel blower module indicators.
  2. Remove the blower module.
  3. Examine the server modules for debris. If debris is present, carefully remove it.
  4. Reseat the faulty blower module.
  5. If the problem is not resolved, install a new blower module.
  6. If the new blower module does not operate, see Getting Help.
