Fan removal and replacement

CAUTION

If you observe that the switch has powered down after two minutes after a fan replacement, it is

likely because the new fan has a mismatched airflow.

c. Gently push the fan into the chassis until it is firmly seated.

d. Using the Phillips screwdriver, secure the fan to the chassis by tightening the captive

screw.

4. Verify that the fan status LED is steady green to indicate normal operation (refer to Table 8).

Optionally, if using the command line interface (CLI), enter the fanShow command at the

command line prompt to display the status. You can also use the chassisShow command. The

fan status can also be viewed using the Web Tools application.
