VMWare ESXi 4.0 on DL385 G1 - fan speed
I hoped that the integrated HP SIM would, kind of like the HPASM package, have the System Health Application which, from what I understand, takes care of fan speeds. Unfortuanatly this didn't solve the problem.
I've tried to install the HPASM for RHEL 4 package and the HP Management Agents for ESX 3.x, in an attempt to get the fan noise down, but it didn't work.
Could someone please point me in the right direction as to how to get these fans to run at lower speeds, when running ESX or ESXi?

have you tried the ESXi ISO with the integrated HP Insight Agents?
Best regards,

These are designed for running in computer rooms, they're not particularly quiet.
They're not really office servers.

Unless I'm overlooking some daemon that needs to be started after boot, but from what I've read, everything should be up and running after a clean installation of the HP integrated ESXi version.

Re: VMWare ESXi 4.0 on DL385 G1 - fan speed
I am looking at using one of these boxes for VMWare ESXi 4.
Did you ever manage to solve the noisey fan issue?
And does your box run 64bit guest operating systems without issues?
Many thanks,
Jon

Re: VMWare ESXi 4.0 on DL385 G1 - fan speed
I am also running VMWare ESXi 4 on this box without any problems, except for the fan noise. It does run 64bit guest operating systems perfectly.
If you ever find a way to get those fans to run at lower speed (without the system detecting fan failures), please let me know.
Regards,
Arjen
