Sun Fire V210 CPU Fan Temp too high?

Hey,

I have a V210 with a failed CPU fan.

The temperature is currently at 84C and I've been asked to wait a few weeks before replacing as its a production system and it cant be shut down yet.

Is it too hot? Do I risk killing the CPU at this temp?

Its been like this for a few weeks now and they want to wait a few more.

I want to tell them that it needs replaced now but I need to know for sure before I do....:confused:

Thanks

Optimal operating temperature for that system is -40� C to 65� C.
You are running a risk. I would never commit to being on the side of such a risk. Will they be responsible if it fails?

Yeah, I told the problem manager. He said to wait.

Apparently the app on the server hasn't crashed in a few weeks and they don't want to touch it since its going well for them. Kinda risky :eek:

we have similar one running over 70C for months now, IIRC. we've been replacing fans with plain 2 wire ones. originals are expensive. perhaps cleaning and lubricating would be a temporary fix.

70 is okay. 75 is where I'd start to worry.
