(usr-tc) dead fan in chassis
I have a dead fan in the removable fan tray of chassis. I am looking for the best way to deal with this issue based on previous experience. So far I have come up with a coupe of solutions, but am looking for the quickest and easiest way to deal with this issue. Send the tray back to 3com Source a similar fan myself and replace myself Do you have a better way? Thanks. Anu Jolliffe Network Administrator Imagen Communications Inc.

Funny, I just had the exact same thing happen this week. To get back up and running in a hurry, I just spent $200 on a new tray... and maybe I'll go swap the one particular fan in the dead tray later. I'm pretty sure it's out of warranty and we don't have a support contract, so I don't have a lot of other options other than "fix myself" and "junk it". :) Mike Andrews (MA12) * mandrews@dcr.net * http://www.bit0.com/ VP, sysadmin, & network guy, Digital Crescent Inc, Frankfort KY Internet services for Frankfort, Lawrenceburg, Owenton, Shelbyville "Don't sweat the petty things, and don't pet the sweaty things."

Send that puppy home if it's under warranty. If not, do you have a spare chassis you've bought just for DSP's? If so, you should have a spare to move everything over to. If not, you may want to consider getting one if for nothing else than having spares. It's a lot cheaper in the long run than having to have hardware contracts...

*This message was transferred with a trial version of CommuniGate(tm) Pro* Hi there. I got a BIG problem with a HiperARC card. We had an electrical problem with the chasis and it seems to be a problem with the "OS" of the HiperARC. Sometimes it boots well, tries to run the SW, but tells me the SW is corrupted and I will need to make a software dwld. Well, this is THE BEST thing ever happen.. but in all the other SAD times I try to boot the card and it only goes to red led alarm (critical) AND DOES NOTHING. Any ideas how to make the card boot with "the scencial" to try a software dwld.? Thanks !! Sergio Sergio Gonzalez Director Operativo -- Operative Manager Skynet de Colombia S.A.
