Removing a fan interface board: 2145-92F

You can remove a fan interface board (FIB) from a 2145-92F expansion enclosure.
Before you begin
This task assumes that the following conditions were met:
v All power cables were removed from the enclosure, as described in "Powering
v The top cover, fan modules, and the other heavy FRUs (drives, secondary
v The expansion enclosure was removed from the rack, as described in "Removing
About this task
The 2145-92F expansion enclosure contains two fan interface boards (FIBs). The
FIBs act as the interface between the fans and the system drive board. FIB 1
connects fan modules 1 and 2 to the drive board; FIB 2 connects fan modules 3
and 4. If both fan modules controlled by a FIB fail, it is possible that the FIB needs
to be replaced.
Important: Because this task is disruptive to the storage system, always attempt
fan replacement first. See "Removing a fan module: 2145-92F" on page 123 and
"Installing or replacing a fan module: 2145-92F" on page 100 for information about
the removal and replacement procedures. Ensure that both fans are installed
correctly. Perform the following procedure only if the amber fault LED on each fan
remains lit ( 1 in Figure 120 on page 126).
