9.1 HARDWARE MAINTENANCE AND DIAGRAMS
This chapter provides details for preventive maintenance of the Octel Overture
t200/300 and procedures
for hardware replacement. It also provides a list of message server components and their part numbers.
To assist with the procedures, diagrams of the Octel Overture 200 and Octel Overture 300 are shown.
Preventive Maintenance
Preventive maintenance consists of cleaning the air filter, periodic visual inspection of fan operation, and
listing the System Performance Tables. The frequency of this maintenance depends on the operating
environment provided for the Octel Overture 200/300. Based on the environment, the local service
company should determine the maintenance interval required.
Caution!
Use of an antistatic wrist grounding strap prevents
damage to sensitive electronic components. Before
handling any electronic equipment, including the
Power Supply Unit and cables, fasten one end of the
strap around your wrist and the other end to any
unpainted metal surface of the Octel Overture
200/300 inner cabinet.
Air Filter
Clean the air filter regularly (every 3 to 4 months) to prevent restricted air flow. Server overheating from
reduced air flow is a common source of alarm calls. Refer to the Air Filter Cleaning section in this
chapter for air-filter removal and replacement procedures.
Fans
Inspect the fans for operation at least once a year. To check the fans, perform the following:
1. Unlock and open the door of the server.
2. For the Octel Overture 200, view the two fans at the rear of the message server and observe whether
they are spinning. (A flashlight will assist in this observation.) If one or more fans are not spinning,
replace the fan assembly as instructed in the Octel Overture 200 Fan Panel Assembly section, in this
chapter.
For the Octel Overture 300, view the four fans through the card cage at shelf A and observe whether
they are spinning. (A flashlight will assist in this observation.) If one or more fans are not spinning,
replace the fan tray as instructed in the Octel Overture 300 Fan Tray Replacement section, in this
chapter.
3. Close and lock the front door of the server.
