Fan problems
General fan problems are occurring
Action:
1. Be sure the fans are properly seated and working.
a. Follow the procedures and warnings in the server documentation for removing the access panels
and accessing and replacing fans.
b. Unseat, and then reseat, each fan according to the proper procedures.
c. Replace the access panels, and then attempt to restart the server.
2. Be sure the fan configuration meets the functional requirements of the server. Refer to the server
documentation.
3. Be sure no ventilation problems exist. If you have been operating the server for an extended period of
time with the access panel removed, airflow may have been impeded, causing thermal damage to
components. Refer to the server documentation for further requirements.
4. Be sure no POST error messages ("POST error messages and beep codes" on page 121) are displayed
while booting the server that indicate temperature violation or fan failure information. Refer to the server
documentation for the temperature requirements for the server.
5. Access the IML to see if any event list error messages (on page 171) relating to fans are listed.
6. Replace any required non-functioning fans and restart the server. Refer to the server documentation for
specifications on fan requirements.
7. Be sure all fan slots have fans or blanks installed. Refer to the server documentation for requirements.
8. Verify the fan airflow path is not blocked by cables or other material.
Hot-plug fan problems are occurring
Action:
1. Check the LEDs to be sure the hot-plug fans are working. Refer to the server documentation for LED
information.
NOTE: For servers with redundant fans, backup fans may spin up periodically to test
functionality. This is part of normal redundant fan operation.
2. Be sure no POST error messages ("POST error messages and beep codes" on page 121) are displayed.
3. Be sure hot-plug fan requirements are being met. Refer to the server documentation.
All fans in an HP BladeSystem c-Class enclosure are operating at a high speed
...while fans in the other enclosures are operating at normal speed.
Action:
If all fan LEDs are solid green, but the fans in this enclosure are operating at a higher speed than normal, then
access more information from the Onboard Administrator or iLO 3.
