Upgrade the Fan Trays

The following applies only to the Oracle Netra CT900 chassis. Refer to the Netra CT900 Server Upgrade Guide for detailed information.

The Netra CT900 server fan tray upgrade kit must be installed in the chassis before the blade server is installed. This fan tray upgrade is required to provide adequate cooling and prevent the system from overheating or shutting down due to an over temperature condition that can occur with older or mismatched fan trays.


Note - This component is hot-swappable and customer-replaceable.


  1. Log in to the Shelf Manager.
  2. Issue the following command for fan trays 1, 2, and 3:
    # clia fruinfo fan_tray 1 | grep "Product Part" 
  3. If the “Product Part/Model Number” is 380-1559-xx or newer, an upgraded fan tray is already installed.
  4. If the “Product Part/Model Number” is 380-1214-02 or older, the fan trays must be replaced with high-speed fan trays.

    Refer to the Netra CT900 Server Upgrade Guide for detailed information.

    Note - Be careful not to disconnect adjacent fans.



    Caution

    Caution - If you are hot-swapping this component, do not keep the fan tray access cover open for more than 60 seconds at a time on a running system, otherwise the system might overheat. Remove and replace only one fan module at a time.
