HP ProLiant DL380p Gen8 Server Maintenance and Service Guide

Removal and replacement procedures 53
o
The BIOS performs an orderly shutdown if two or more fans have failed.
o The server performs an immediate shutdown if it detects a critical temperature level.
IMPORTANT: An immediate shutdown is a hardware-controlled function and it overrides any
firmware or software actions.
• In the operating system:
o The Health Driver performs an orderly shutdown if it detects a cautionary temperature level. If the
server detects a critical temperature level before the orderly shutdown occurs, the server performs an
immediate shutdown. Additionally, the Health Driver performs an orderly shutdown if more than
one fan is failed or removed.
o When Thermal Shutdown is disabled in RBSU, the server performs an immediate shutdown if it
detects a critical temperature level.
IMPORTANT: An immediate shutdown is a hardware-controlled function and it overrides any
firmware or software actions.
To remove the component:
1. Extend ("Extend the server from the rack" on page 29) or remove ("Remove the server from the rack" on
page 30) the server from the rack.
2. Remove the access panel ("Access panel" on page 34).
3. Remove the fan.
CAUTION: Do not operate the server for long periods with the access panel open or removed.
Operating the server in this manner results in improper airflow and improper cooling that can
lead to thermal damage.
To replace the component, reverse the removal procedure.
