System Fans

The SC827 chassis accepts four system fans powered from the backplane. When
node A or node B are powered on, both fans on the left of the chassis will run. When
node C or node D are powered on, both fans on the right of the chassis will run.
Changing a System Fan
1. If necessary, open the chassis while the power is running to determine which
fan has failed. (Never run the server for an extended period of time with the
chassis cover open.)
2. Remove the failed fan's power cord from the backplane.
3. Lift the fan housing up and out of the chassis.
4. Push the fan up from the bottom and out of the top of the housing.
5. Place the replacement fan into the vacant space in the housing while making
sure the arrows on the top of the fan (indicating air direction) point in the
same direction as the arrows on the other fans (see Figure 6-4).
6. Replace the fan housing into the chassis and reconnect it to the backplane
(see Figure 6-5).
7. Confirm that the fan is working properly before replacing the chassis cover
