Health & Wellness drivers for ML370

[Sean Crosby_1]

i am trying to install Red Hat 9.0 on a ML370 and i want to monitor the server.
The fan is at high speed and i want to slow it down. When I had Win2k on the server it was handled by the compaq tools that were loaded.
How can I do this with Linux?
Thanks

Hi

Fans auto switch their speed.
If you have normal env they will slow down.

I'm not sure about linux driver, but you can try HPUX site with word SIM and Insite Manager.

I am trying to run Red Hat 9.0 on this server. I think I read somewhere that RH 9.0 is not supported on the server.
Do you know if that is correct?
I know that when I had Win2k on this server I was able to load up the Compq/HP Rompaq and it slowed the fan down.
Thanks

Thanks. I will check it out.
Do you think it will work on RH 9.0? If not I will have to drop it back to 8.0.

I think that it will be work.
My be you will need to do some change in install script. Find where scrpt check RH version and comment it or add your version :)))

After I run the RPM what should be done next?
The package was installed successfully but the fan is still loud.
Do I just need to reboot the server?

I think I answered my own issue. I just started the service and now I am good.
Thanks for everyones help.
