running. The units are also interchangeable. The failure of a power supply +12.5 VDC circuit disables

the associated

blower

.

Power supply and blower status reporting

The green status LED on the

blower

displays the status of both the power supply and the blower. See

Drive enclosure EMU

The EMU provides increased protection against catastrophic failures. The EMU detects conditions such

as failed power supplies, failed

blowers

, elevated temperatures, and external air sense faults and

communicates these conditions to the storage system controllers.
