Replacing Modules
If you must replace the fan module during operations and both of the above conditions are not met, leave the
fan module that you need to replace in the chassis to preserve the designed airflow until you have the required
module.

location of the LED). If you are replacing a fan module during operations, the other two fan modules must be operating.
Note If you are replacing the fan module while the chassis is not operating, you can skip this
step.
