Corsair Commander Pro

[mikeyosm]

Hi

 

Running 6.9.2 and connected my Corsair Commander Pro to a USB port to see if I can get fan control working under UNRAID/Linux.

According to the following articles

https://blog.ktz.me/a-usb-fan-controller-that-now-works-under-linux/

https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Corsair-Commander-Pro-Linux-5.9

 

the CPro should be detected under Linux kernel 5.9+ but unfortunately it's not being detected in UNRAID.

Running sensors-detect does not list the commander pro at all so not sure if the driver is loaded or indeed even added to the kernel.

The Commander Pro is available for passthrough to a VM and shows up in my USB list so it's defo working OK.

 

Is there any way I can check if the driver named (corsair-cpro) is available in 6.9.2 UNRAID kernel and if not is it available in 6.10 RC1? 

 

Thank you for your help.

 

EDIT: lspro shows the driver exists but is not in use.

Did you get this figured out? I too would like to get this working fully. 

 

I have been running a windows 10 vm to handle the fans/AIO, it would be great to not have to.

So it turns out that the fans are visible to UNRAID/Linux and appear in the UNRAID dashboard. I haven't installed the dynamix fan control plugin as I dont need to control the speed of the fans. The trick is to not tick the fans in the dynamix sys temp settings, that's when things get messy.

+1 i am in the same situation.

my gigabyte X570 AORUS master is lacking support for the fan and temp sensors in unraid and I am looking for a solution to control them in the unraid ui. 

 

Can you try and see if you can control them with the plugin and report back?

So, in the Dynamix Fan Auto Control plugin lists the fans attached to the CCP.  When I select one, and hit Detect on the PWM Fan entry, it returns the following:

Seems like a possible flash drive problem. Attach diagnostics to your NEXT post in this thread.

[KnottySean]

I just replaced my flash drive last week, my last one decided it only wanted to mount read-only.

 

Here are the diags.

Is that expected? If not that could also indicate a flash problem.

 

Are you booting from USB2 port?

[KnottySean]

I had an issue with my quad-port nic in my host this morning after a restart command, and had to power off the host.

 

My Asrock X570M Pro4 doesn't have any USB 2.0 ports in the rear. I've been running it on a USB 3.0 port since I built it last Jan2020.

Not at all clear what you are asking about. This is an old thread, mostly about flash drive problems, one of many threads about that topic. Why did you post to this one? What is your specific problem?

I have the corsair working.. and I have a sensor plugged in. I would like to add the ability to show the Corsair sensors on the Main page of UnRaid but haven't found a way to do it.

 

I have placed one prob on the LSI heatsink and I'll be putting another on my tv tuner heatsink to monitor them. 

I can shell and run sensors.

fan2 4pin:   1625 RPM
fan3 4pin:   1562 RPM
fan4 3pin:   1863 RPM
temp1:        +40.8°C  

 

FAN 4  3pin is the PCI fan slot  cooler pointed at the LSI card. Temp1 is a temp sensor pressed inside the fins of the LSI card.

I'm trying to get mine going. I'm building a new server and was going to move my USB and drives from the old server over. I am making sure all the hardware works before taking down the old server so I just downloaded a new copy of unraid 6.12.10 and am running without an array. 

 

I have a commander XT that was bought but not used for a gaming setup and it would be super handy to use as I have more fans in the new machine than fan ports on the motherboard. I also want to use the temp sensor to get the temperature from the LSI card so I can monitor/use that for fan control.

 

The commander shows up but sensors doesn't see it:

I tried sensors-detect but its not seeing the commander. Any ideas?
