Checking the Server's Air Flow
Checking the Air Flow
1. Make sure there are no objects to obstruct airflow in and out of the server. In
addition, if you are using a front bezel, make sure the bezel's filter is replaced
periodically.
2. Do not operate the server without drives or drive trays in the drive bays. Use
only recommended server parts.
3. Make sure no wires or foreign objects obstruct air flow through the chassis. Pull
all excess cabling out of the airflow path or use shorter cables.
In most cases, the chassis power supply and fans are pre-installed. If you need to
install fans continue to the Systems Fan section of this chapter. If the chassis will be
installed into a rack, continue to the next chapter for rack installation instructions.
