ML110 G7 - Strange fan behavior
Hi.
I have a ML110 G7 where the PCI fan runs constantly at 50% speed. I contacted HP and got a new fan. The new fan runs constantly at 47% speed. The server has 2 HDD and a P410i SAC.
During POST both the fans spin directly to this speed 50% or 47% and there is no change when the OS starts.
Anyone got an idea of what is failing?
Regards, Ingi.

Re: ML110 G7 - Strange fan behavior
Hello,
I understand that the fans are running at the constant speed but this is not a issue still I would suggest you to udpate the ILO firmware as ILO manages all the fans and other component.
Refer the link in order to update the firmware:

Re: ML110 G7 - Strange fan behavior
Hi.
I already have the latest ILO firmware. I beleive that this is an issue, I manage many other HP Proliants and none of them are running any fans at this speed when idle and even under heavy load I have not seen this fan speeds. The fan makes a loud noise and the server is in a quiet environment and therefore annoying.
To be more specific the new fan starts at 47% and after 10 minutes it starts going from 47% - 50% back and forth every 10-15 seconds. No load on server.
Regards, Ingi.

Re: ML110 G7 - Strange fan behavior
Hello,
As you mentioned that the ILO is up to date I would suggest you to download the smart start disk and run the offline diagnostic and provide us the report:
Also please change the below provided option:
Regards
Abhishek
- Power on the server.
- Press the F9 key to enter RBSU.
- Select "Advanced."
- Select "FanSpeed."
- Set the defaultspeedof the fans to "low."

Re: ML110 G7 - Strange fan behavior
Hi.
Attached is the report.
The option you mentioned is not available. Under Advanced I only have Thermal Configuration and there I can either select Optimal Cooling or Increased Cooling. Optimal is selected.
Regards, Ingi.

Re: ML110 G7 - Strange fan behavior
I have an open case with HP and have received a response saying that it's working as intended.
Unfortunately, the quickspecs say the server should run around 44 dB. Using two separate iPhone apps, I've got the sound measuring 73 dB (granted the iPhone isn't a dedicated sound meter, however, I'm reluctant to spend $300 on one just to prove a point with support).
The support case is still open. I would expect a rack-mount server to be this noisy, not a tower.

Re: ML110 G7 - Strange fan behavior
Just set up a new ML110 G7 and it is behaving the same way; fans constantly at between 46 and 55%.
