![]() ![]() SYS FAN 4 being 1000RPM will be the one making the noise, i would need to know the if you only have the board or the complete server chassis, also what CPU and RAM are installed to confirm anything (which take me a few days though). Other interesting Linux alternatives to SpeedFan are hwinfo, Lm-Sensors, CPU Frequency Selector and fancontrol. To answer your question, ive never been able to control Intel fans via software, especially when its a server, it will be from the BMC which as far as i know means you can only read the data from the fan, not control it. The S1200 has a cooling curve, i always set them to maximum performance and the current server (S1200 series) is almost silent, i get more noise from the PSU fans than the system ones. Ive not looked at the Intel hardware itself in depth, however i can tell you with regards Lenovo (which are Intel CPU and Intel chipsets) the fans are only controlled by the BMC and this will depends on the cooling curve you select AND whats installed.įor example in the Lenovo if there is a RAID card then the fans nearest the RAID card are set to be more aggressive, so as more data is pulled those 2 fans would rev up way faster than if a RAID card was not installed. There is a setting that can be changed on BIOS > System Acoustic and Performance Configuration that allow you to somehow manually set up a fan profile depending on your needs.Ībout disconnecting any of the fans what will trigger the remaining ones to rev up as a safety measure so definitely is not recommended.Ībout the OS just to let you know that doesn't show up within the supported OS for this board: Īfter that let me forward you a document that would help you to troubleshoot fan issues: The Linux kernel supports a wide variety of temperature monitoring and fan speed control. How easy is it to pull sensor data and set up fan speed curves in Linux Thanks. Fans are controlled by the BMC depending on the cooling requirements. The fan controller in BIOS cant pull GPU temp, so thats unfortunately not an option. If you want to change the speed of your computer’s fan, press. The Fan menu on most laptops includes a speed slider. Some laptops can be manually set to a specific fan speed by selecting Fan or Hardware from the system menu (usually found in the Control Panel). First of all to answer your question the fans cannot be controller through IPMI. By selecting Fan Speed Control from the submenu, you can access the fan controls.
