Page 149: Installing And Removing Fan Modules
The IBM c-type SAN Devices have three fan modules. Each fan module for the SAN384C-6 Director has four individual fans and each fan module for the SAN192C-6 Director has two individual fans with an abrupt stop-to-fan rotation safety feature after power is disconnected or the fan module is removed from the mid-plane.
Page 150: Starting Up The Switch
IBM c-type SAN switches and devices will be shut down to prevent potentially undetectable overheating. However, the switches will be shut down sooner if the higher-level temperature threshold is exceeded. In normal data center conditions, if one fan module fails or needs to be removed, the other two fan modules can cool the system effectively for up to 72 hours.
Page 151: Verifying Component Installation
CAUTION : Do not operate the switch without a functioning fan module except during the brief fan module replacement procedure. The IBM c-type SAN switches and devices can operate for only a few minutes without a functioning fan module before they begin to overheat.
