iLO causes fans to run on high speed

[oernii]

Hi, I have 2 ml110/g5 servers. Both act the same: after I insert iLO i100c the fans just do NOT stop. the continue running at ~4000 rpm even in and AC room.

When i pop put the iLO, fans spin down to a bearable 1800 rpm after OS boot.

any insights?

Update BIOS and BMC to latest levels:
