dmacias Posted October 10, 2017 Author Share Posted October 10, 2017 In the 2017.10.09 update I added Asrock dual socket (EP2C602) support to the ipmi2json script (Configure Button). You need to stop any ipmi fan scripts. If you click on Configure on the Fan Settings page or run ipmi2json from the command line it will detect all available fans by setting them all to full speed then setting each point in the ipmi-raw command to 1/3. Then create a board.json in /boot/config/plugins/ipmi on the flash drive. Should look something like this but with actual fan names. { "ASRock": { "raw": "00 3a 01", "auto": "00 00 00 00 00 00", "full": "01 64 64 64 64 64", "fans": { "FAN_POS1": "00", "FAN_POS2": "00", "FAN_POS3": "00", "FAN_POS4": "00", "FAN_POS5": "00" } }, "ASRock1": { "raw": "00 3a 11", "auto": "00 00 00 00 00 00", "full": "01 64 64 64 64 64", "fans": { "FAN_POS1": "00", "FAN_POS2": "00", "FAN_POS3": "00", "FAN_POS4": "00", "FAN_POS5": "00" } } } Quote Link to comment

You do have more fans? If so, try running ipmi2json --debug from the command line and post the results. Remove any username or passwords if applicable. Quote Link to comment

Korny Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 For me to run configure in the GUI I had to turn fan control on, press apply, and then turn it off and press apply, and that allowed me to use the configure option. Even though when I initially started it the gui said it was stopped. 1 Quote Link to comment

It probably has to do with your boards sort of being in limbo. You can run impifan even though you shouldn't. It probably crashed or didn't stop properly and left the pid. ipmi2json only checks for the ipmifan pid. Starting and stopping ipmifan should clear it up. Thanks for testing it out.

wgstarks Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 (edited) This question may have already been asked, but I couldn't find it. Why is there such a large difference between the HDD temp shown in the sensors page/footer and the HDD temp shown in the logs? 26C vs 38C. Aren't both readings being taken from the same sensor? BTW- All my drives are spun down currently except cache (26C) and one external drive mounted via UD (38C). Edited October 15, 2017 by wgstarks Quote Link to comment

BTW- All my drives are spun down currently except cache (26C) and one external drive mounted via UD (38C). The Sensors page takes the highest hard drive temp from the already available /var/local/emhttp/disks.ini. I didn't want to re-poll the hard drives since they had already been polled. This however only includes array drives. The fan control script takes the highest temp from all drives. That's the reason for the 38 in the fancontrol log and 26 in the readings. There was some talk recently about possibly adding an ignore function to fan control. This would keep fans from spinning up due to external or preclearing drives. That's on my todo list. Similar to the dropdown checklist for sensors but for hard drives. Edited October 16, 2017 by dmacias Quote Link to comment

Sparta Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I've got a new server up and running on a Supermicro X9DRi-F board. The fans are *very* loud, so I installed IPMI and was happy to see that it's grabbed all the sensors and fans and seems to be compatible with my board. However, I can't seem to get fan control to work right. I have it set on, the settings are set to Auto with high of 80c, low of 20c, and speed max/min set to 100 and 1%. All of my drives, cpus, and other sensors are clocking in between 35-43C, but the fans are still running at 3k RPM. Weirdly, a few fans do seem to cycle down to 2775RPM and then back up on occasion, however the fan event log shows nothing at all in IPMI. Has anyone encountered this? Part of me thinks that IPMI isn't able to control the fans, maybe I've set something wrong in my bios? Is there a way to manually turn off a fan from within IPMI to test to see if it actually can manage fan speed? Quote Link to comment

Is there a way to manually turn off a fan from within IPMI to test to see if it actually can manage fan speed?The X9 boards don't really support much fan control through ipmi. They use different commands than the X10/X11. I believe all I can do is set fans to a low, medium and high. I'm currently working to add support for Asrock dual core boards, so I'll see if I can add support for the X9 boards too. Could you verify what "dmidecode -t 2" from the command line shows for Product Name? Edit: The cycling can be remedied by changing the thresholds with the Sensor Editor. You have to search back through the thread for that info. Maybe I should just add that info to the OP and plugin help sections. Quote Link to comment
Sparta Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Yep, looks like X9. # dmidecode 3.0 Getting SMBIOS data from sysfs. SMBIOS 2.7 present. Handle 0x0002, DMI type 2, 15 bytes Base Board Information Manufacturer: Supermicro Product Name: X9DR3-F Version: 1234567890 Serial Number: {My Serial Number} Asset Tag: To be filled by O.E.M. Features: Board is a hosting board Board is replaceable Location In Chassis: To be filled by O.E.M.

Not really a big deal in this case but some external cases really get hot and crank my case fans to full for no gain.The latest version has the ability to exclude hard drives now. Also, as with all the fan settings, they can all be changed and applied without stopping fan control. The ipmifan script will pickup changes to the fan.cfg file and implement them on the next internal. Quote Link to comment

My HD temp still shows my NVME drive which always runs warmer then my disk array. Also I noticed in the release notes you were working on the asrock boards, if you need anything from me please let me know Thanks Aaron Quote Link to comment
dmacias Posted October 26, 2017 Author Share Posted October 26, 2017 The hard drive list is just for the fan control script. In order to ignore certain drives so fans aren't running full speed. If your nvme drive isn't in the list then it wouldn't be factored in the hard drive temp polling of the fan control.But let me know if it's in the list. Right now the list is compiled by searching /dev/ for sdx and udev to get the serial. "udevadm info --query=property --name=/dev/sdx | grep ID_SERIAL= | cut -c11-"I could possibly add a different hdd list to the settings page along side the sensors and dash ignore lists. The readings page and footer hdd temps are pulled from unRAID webgui data because I don't want to constantly repoll drives. So that reading is the highest temp only from array drives, not any unassigned. Quote Link to comment
