thermal-problem

Fault Detail

Description

Fault Name

Storage Enclosure Thermal Issue Non Recoverable

Fault Code

F1833

Explanation

This fault occurs when there is a thermal problem on an HDD MotherBoard module. Be aware of the following possible contributing factors:

  • Temperature extremes can cause Cisco UCS equipment to operate at reduced efficiency and cause a variety of problems, including early degradation, failure of chips, and failure of equipment. In addition, extreme temperature fluctuations can cause CPUs to become loose in their sockets.

  • Cisco UCS equipment should operate in an environment that provides an inlet air temperature not colder than 50F (10C) nor hotter than 95F (35C).

Recommended Actions

If you see this fault, take the following actions:

  • Review the product specifications to determine the temperature operating range of the I/O module.

  • Review the Cisco UCS Site Preparation Guide to ensure the I/O modules have adequate airflow, including front and back clearance.

  • Verify that the air flows on the Cisco UCS chassis are not obstructed.

  • Verify that the site cooling system is operating properly.

  • Power off unused servers.

  • Clean the installation site at regular intervals to avoid buildup of dust and debris, which can cause a system to overheat.

  • Replace faulty I/O modules.

  • Use the Cisco UCS power capping capability to limit power usage. Power capping can limit the power consumption of the system, including blade and rack servers, to a threshold that is less than or equal to the system's maximum rated power. Power capping can have an impact on heat dissipation and help to lower the installation site temperature.

  • If the above actions did not resolve the issue, create a show tech support file and contact Cisco TAC. Click Here
