Replacing the Fan Tray Modules

This section describes how to replace the Fan Tray module. It describes replacement of the Fan Tray module #1 (on left side of chassis), but it also applies to the Fan Tray module #2.

The Fan Tray module is hot-swappable and thus, can be replaced without powering down the device.

DO NOT operate the device without the two Fan Tray modules.
Before replacing a failed Fan Tray module, make sure that you have the replacement Fan Tray module on hand so that you can immediately replace the failed module with it.
When removing the Fan Tray module, the blades may still be rotating at high speeds (even if you power off the device). Therefore, partially extract the module from the chassis and then wait a few seconds to allow the blades to stop, prior to extracting the module entirely from the chassis.

Avertissements:
