The PRIMERGY RX300 S6 server with a 48 V DC power supply is
equipped with 10 fans. Do not remove one fan without replacing it.
The server is equipped with five separate hot-plug fan modules. The redundant
fan configuration allows one fan to fail and the system still works. To ensure the
redundancy of the fan system the faulty fan has to be replaced immediately.
A predicted fan fault is reported by the Global Error indicator lighting up on the
front and rear of the server. When the housing cover is open, the faulty fan can
be identified by the corresponding LED
replaced while the system is running.
To ensure the redundancy of the fan system the faulty fan has to be replaced
immediately.
