Replacing Hot-Plug Fans

The ProLiant DL740 server ships with two hot-plug fans. Fan 1 is closest to the front
of the server. Each fan has an arrow-shaped status LED that indicates the status of the
fan the arrow is pointing to. Figure 5-26 shows an example of the hot-plug fan status
LEDs:

• Hot-plug fan 1 LED (1)—In this case the LED is amber, which means that the

fan needs attention or is not installed.

• Hot-plug fan 2 LED (2)—In this case the LED is green, which means that the fan

is installed, and working properly.

CAUTION: Never remove both hot-plug fans while the server is powered up.
Overheating and damage to hardware could result. If the appropriate HP software
drivers are installed, the operating system software will initiate a power shutdown.

NOTE: The hot-plug fan LEDs are not part of the fan housing. Figure 5-26 shows the LEDs as
if the fan were installed in the server.
