Normally a reboot will resolve the problem. However coming into work this morning the problem has reared it's ugly head and not even a reboot has resolved it. The servers are in the same office in which I work so as you can imagine the noise is very annoying. I am running PSP 7.80. I would rather not upgrade to PSP 7.9 as the network driver have caused instability issues. Help!!!!
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Server Fans DL380 G5
Instability issues with network will be solved with disabling TOE and RSS in NCU.
About the noises... Which is your bios version?
And what is the temperature in the room?

Re: Server Fans DL380 G5
If PSP7.9 has solved the noise issue & created network issue for you;
Upgrade to PSP7.9
&
Downgrade to Network drivers to the one present in PSP 7.8
Regards.
BTW : what network issues are you referring to ? & are the FIRMWARE up-to-date ??

SolutionAre you sure that it isn't the power supply fans which are kicking in (and not the internal fans)?
There have been similar issues with the G5 power supply unit on ML370 G5 models (Same PSU).
http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=1158001
One easy way to check is if you have two power supplies, pull the mains cable on one for a few seconds and then refit it. Then do the other PSU. If the noise goes away it's because the PSU has reset properly and the thermal sensors are not forcing the fans to remain on.
The G5 power supplies work differently to previous models.

Re: Server Fans DL380 G5
That's interesting to know as the DL380 G5 problem doesn't appear to be so common. I guess that's due to the fact that they are normally in a rack within a computer room and no-one would be likely to notice the difference in noise level.
It's obviously different if the server is within an office environment. Try to get HP to provide REV 06M power supplies if possible although this might be difficult to organise as they are replacing these units at a phenomenal rate just now and the revision levels appear to be changing weekly as HP engineering try to get to the bottom of numerous problems with the new G5 power supply design.
They should never have changed the way it works compared to the G4, G3, G2 models. A case of "If it ain't broke - why fix it".

Brian
