Measures reported by UCSFIConnsFanTest

The Cisco UCS Fabric Interconnects comprise of two slots on the front of the chassis for fan modules. Each fan module houses six fans. The combination of six fans for each module and two modules provides the chassis with 12 fans.

Use this test to closely monitor the availability, overall health, and performance of each of these fans and report anomalies so that, you can promptly initiate measures to ensure that adequate air flow is available in the fabric interconnects.

The measures made by this test are as follows:
