Chapter 2 Installing the Cisco MDS 9100 Series

Removing and Installing Components

For the Cisco MDS 9140 Switch and the Cisco MDS 9120 Switch, the fans should not be removed for prolonged periods of time during operation. If one fan module fails, a single healthy fan module can temporarily provide sufficient cooling to maintain switch operation under normal conditions, but the failed fan module should be replaced as soon as possible. See Figure 2-22.
