Replacing A Fan Module; Before You Begin; Verifying Component Failure; Removing The Fan Module - HP StorageWorks 1510i - Modular Smart Array Service Manual

Replacing a fan module

The variable-speed fan module is hot-pluggable, so it is not necessary to power down the system to
replace it.

Before you begin

CAUTION:
• Before removing a component or blank from an operational device, make sure that you have the
replacement part or blank available. Removing a component or blank impacts the airflow pattern
and cooling ability of the device. Allow approximately 30 seconds before installing the new or
replacement component to ensure that configuration data about the removed component is cleared
from the system registry, but, to avoid possible overheating, insert the new or replacement component
within one or two minutes. If the internal temperature exceeds acceptable limits, the device may
overheat and automatically shut down or restart.
• Parts can be damaged by electrostatic discharge. Use proper anti-static protection.

Verifying component failure

Before replacing a fan module:
• Check the array controller LCD display panel for error messages.
• Verify that the electrical source is delivering power down the AC power cord.
• Verify that the fan module fault LED is blinking amber.

Removing the fan module

1. Review all warnings, cautions, and preparation procedures as detailed in
2. Lift the port-colored fan module latch (1) and pull the fan module out of the chassis (2).

Installing the fan module

Slide the replacement fan module into the MSA chassis bay until the module clicks into place.
