Replacing a Fixed Fan
Caution: The system fans are NOT hot swappable. Before removing or replacing a fan, you must first take the server out of service, turn off all peripheral devices connected to the system, turn off the system by pressing the power button, and unplug the AC power cord from the system or wall outlet.
