Removing and Replacing the Fan Tray
A fan tray failure or a failure of one fan within the fan tray is recognized by an unlit LED, an SNMP trap,
or major alarm event. The failure requires a replacement of the entire fan tray. While you replace the fan
tray, the E300 system will operate safely for approximately one (1) minute at an ambient temperature of
95° F (35° C).
To remove and replace the fan tray, you must be able to pull the fan tray completely out of the slot (at
least 20 inches).
