Replacing a Cooling Fan
Warning
This procedure must only be performed by a service represen-
tative certified by Bull.
Caution
The fans are NOT hot swappable.
The blower fans can be individually replaced if one of them fails. If a fan in the power
supply fails, the power supply must be replaced. Use the steps below to replace a
system blower fan or the PCI cooling fan.
Note: The fans that are integrated into the power supply
cannot be replaced separately. If one of the fans in the power
supply fails, the power supply must be replaced.
