▀ Determining Whether a Fan Tray Needs Replacing
Determining Whether a Fan Tray Needs Replacing
The system has several ways to indicate a fan tray failure. The first indicator is that the Status LED on the System
Resource Card (SRC) turns red to indicate the failure of a chassis component.
If you see a red Status LED on the SRC, you can determine whether it is a fan tray failure via the CLI or by checking
the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) traps.
Using the CLI
To monitor chassis temperature and fan speed, issue the following CLI command in the Exec mode:
show fans
The following is a sample output for this command:
Upper Fan Controller: State=All Running
Lower Fan Controller: State=All Running
Using SNMP Traps and MIB Objects
The system supports SNMP traps that are triggered for conditions that may indicate the need to change the fan tray. The
system provides the traps listed in the table below.
Table 82.
