We can do some really cool things with impi. Here is a link with information about the script. From here you can use some of the information provided to make a custom script that will execute as desired.
#Fancontrol on poweredge 1950 install#
In Unraid you can download and install the plugin User Scripts available in CA. If you find yourself needing to keep your server quiet for any reason, check out this link for some more help! Unraid Script I ran the commands once and they stuck, even after a few reboots. I didn’t have to make a script or cron job to keep my fans at 20%. Convert Decimal to Hex in order to set the speed you want, aka, 80% in Decimal gives us a Hex value of 0x50.

You can set any fan speed you want, all you have to do is set the last hex value to your desired speed.

This command will disable manual fan control

These commands no longer work on any iDrac update beyond 3.30.30.30. I’ve read that some people have created a script to watch the CPU Temp and when a temperature threshold is met, like 76C, the script increases the fan speed. You could damage your system if the system gets too hot. Manually taking control of your fans will prevent the system from increasing the fan speed in the event of rising CPU or system temperature. Unfortunately, I have only tested this on my Dell R330’s, check the comments for other confirmed systems by other people. It should work for most PowerEdge servers also.

Put the USB into the server, boot to the BIOS Setup F2 and make sure USB is enabled with BIOS support and that it is at the top of the boot sequence.This post will cover how to silence your Dell PowerEdge R330 server. We'll also assume your USB is assigned the drive letter G: after formatting. To check to make sure, in diskpart type "list disk". For this example, we'll assume it is letter F.

Mount the 2012 ISO (just double-click in Windows 8 and later), take a note of the drive letter. Extracted files must be copied to a specially prepared flash drive. you can't just put the ISO on a flash drive. DVD drives were still optional when the 1950 was sold, and a CD drive will NOT read Server 2012 media (Vista/2008 and later is DVD only).įor a bootable USB. You can't just put the ISO on a DVD.Īlso, make sure that your 1950 has a DVD drive. If you are using Windows 7 or later, just right-click the ISO and choose Burn Disc Image.
