Replace a Fan
If a fan fails, the remaining fans ramp up to full speed, the Error LED on the control panel 
lights, and an email alert is sent to the system administrator. Replace a failed fan as soon as 
possible. Remove the top chassis cover while the system is still running to determine which 
fan failed.
Fans are hot-pluggable, so you do not need to power down your system when replacing a 
fan.
To replace a fan on a 2120:
1.
Remove the chassis cover.
2.
Disconnect the fan’s power connections.
