Since you indicate it's just one unit, a fan is the likely suspect. Though 
sometimes the fans fail to start, or otherwise seize up, ask your colo for a 
hard reboot (power switch on and off) to try to kick start your fan, see if 
that helps. Obviously, they should do that for free. If they have to replace 
the fan that will take about 15 mins, 20 including the re-rack. Whatever you 
do, don't order the fan directly from Sun. They're outrageous. I have spares 
you can have at my cost if you need them, just let me know.

Good luck,

Brandon
