Cold air coming through....

Hi folks, We have an issue that when we have the majority of blades turned off in a chassis (or even all of them!) the fans still run at 30-40%. This means we're pumping cold air into the hot aisle... Is this expected behaviour? Simon.

The OA/s will always run the fans at the 'optimum' level for the heat-clearing required. The fans are very efficient so don't worry about them turning when you're not busy. Phil.
