We have had a DL380 G4 for a few years (running Win2K3) and the fans have run at full speed since we put it in. It's the only one of our HP servers that does it - annoying for sure!
I haven't tried any of these solutions but, a couple threads on the subject: http://forums11.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?admit=109447626 +1233758589296+28353475 <http://forums11.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?admit=10944762 6+1233758589296+28353475&threadId=962600> &threadId=962600 http://communities.vmware.com/thread/19627 - Andy O. ________________________________________ From: Doige, Clayton [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, February 04, 2009 7:10 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: HP DL380 G4 & Windows 2008 Hi all, hoping someone has seen this. We have put W2K8 on a couple of the aforementioned servers, and the fans are staying at full pelt at all times, even with the latest bios updates etc from HP. As anyone come across this, and if so, is there a patch that shuts the bl**dy fans up?
