Fan Failure Management
5.2 Fan Failure Management
To cool the many hard disks installed in the system as well as the other
electronic parts, the system is equipped with several fans that are built
in the faceplate and can be exchanged in case of a failure easily. This
section describes what to do if a fan failure takes place.
When a fan failure occurs, you will be notified by the sounding of an
alarm buzzer of the system. The alarm can be switched mute with the
mute button at the front of the system (see section "Overview of the
Front" on page 2-3). Furthermore, you might see the warning/alarm
icon in the display on the faceplate that informs you about a hardware
failure (see section "Overview of the Front" on page 2-3).
An alarm can be caused by a number of reasons. Please refer to section
"Troubleshooting" on page A-2 first for further details about what to do
in case of an alarm.
You can configure SNMP or use the SAN Remo configuration manage-
ment software to monitor the hardware parts of the SpycerBox Cell as
well. For this, see the „SAN Remo Configuration Management" supple-
ment.
It is recommended to check the status of the hardware parts at regular
intervals in the SAN Remo software.
The replacement of a faceplate with a broken fan can be divided into
two steps:
1.
Removing the faceplate with the broken fan(s) from the system.
2.
Fastening the faceplate to the system.
Depending on your service contract, different scenarios regarding spare
parts are possible:
You have ordered spare parts together with the system and have
them now available in stock
R&S DVS sends you the new spare parts before you send back the
hardware part you want to replace (advanced replacement)
You first send the hardware part you want to replace and then
receive the new one from R&S DVS
Please refer to the R&S DVS service department for further information
about this.
