Remove and replace a fan module.
Replacing a Storwize V7000 Gen2 fan module
Use this procedure to replace a faulty fan module with a new one received from
CRU or FRU stock.
About this task
A fan module is located behind each node canister, and is accessed using the node
canister slot after the node canister is removed.
Do not remove the node canister and faulty fan module before the replacement fan
is on hand. The replacement procedure described must be completed within 5
minutes of the faulty fan module being removed to ensure that components do not
shut down due to excessive temperatures.
When removing a node canister, aim to maximize drive and system availability by
maintaining one online node in the control enclosure. If you cannot maintain at
least one node canister online in the system, then you might need to follow the
system recovery procedure after the node canister is replaced into the enclosure.
