Replacing a fan assembly in the Brocade VDX 6720-60

FIGURE 18 Brocade VDX 6720-60 fan assemblies on the non-port side

ATTENTION

Maintain all power supply and fan assemblies in operational condition to provide redundancy.

CAUTION

Because the cooling system relies on pressurized air, do not leave any of the power supply and

fan assembly slots empty longer than two minutes while the switch is operating. If a power supply

or fan assembly fails, leave it in the switch until it can be replaced.

CAUTION

Disassembling any part of the power supply and fan assembly voids the warranty and regulatory

certifications. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the power supply and fan assembly.
