Important! Required Fan Threshold Settings

Users Must Change SFM Defaults in 02.1.00c
Although software version 02.1.00c corrected the default fan temperature thresholds for interface modules, it did not
correct the values for the Switch Fabric Module (SFM). Users are advised to modify the SFM fan temperature
thresholds and to save that setting in the config file. HP recommends the same thresholds for the SFM that are now
recommended (and are now defaults) for the interface modules. Use these commands to apply and save the new
recommended SFM fan temperature thresholds:
ProCurveRS(config)# fan-threshold switch-fabric low 50 med 46 55 med-hi 51 60 hi 56 85
ProCurveRS(config)# write mem
The ProCurve 9408sl Routing Switch exceeds 100 lbs. (44 kg) without
modules and power supplies installed. To avoid personal injury, re-
duce weight of chassis by removing all modules and power supplies
from chassis prior to lifting or moving.
When handling, two or more people are required.
