Caution

Caution  - This procedure requires that you handle components that are sensitive to electrostatic discharge. This discharge can cause failure of server components.


  1. Locate the faulty fan module that you want to remove from the server.
  2. Determine if you can remove the fan module with the server running or not.

    See Fan Module Locations to determine if you can remove a fan module with the server running or if you must shut down the server before removing a fan module.

    • If you cannot remove a fan module with the server running, see Removing Power From the Server to power down the server before continuing.
