Replacing a fan
Shutting down the impaired node
To shut down the impaired node, you must determine the status of the node and, if necessary, take over the
node so that the healthy node continues to serve data from the impaired node storage.

• If you have a cluster with more than two nodes, it must be in quorum. If the cluster is not in quorum or a
healthy node shows false for eligibility and health, you must correct the issue before shutting down the
impaired node.
