June 1, 20179 yr 14 hours ago, dmacias said: I updated some of the screenshots in the original post. They were outdated. The current fan control does include a fan speed minimum and the ability to link a fan to a specific temperature sensor. The temperature regulation is based on a scale between the upper and lower temperature thresholds and the reading of the chosen sensor. That sounds great. Can't wait for using that on my x11 board to get rid of my static speed hardware controller. What I noticed is that having a polling time of some minutes is nice to control the temperature of HDDs but if the main CPU Fan is controlled by that, less than a few seconds will be a little so log to cool down a temperature spike based one spontaneous heavy processing of higher TDP CPUs?! Correct me if I'm wrong with that. Edited June 1, 20179 yr by Diggewuff
June 2, 20179 yr Hi dmacias, johnnie.black, may I know what command to execute and where? What numbers should I put on the command? Does it persist even after restart? What do you mean by "I think the x9 would only allow fan control with all fans low, med, high." May I know if not like that, how does the other newer boards handle fan control? Thank you.

You just go edit the threshold in the configurator of the plugin and save it.
June 3, 20179 yr In my case, what will be my threshold? What is the command line? Can you give a sample format? Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk

Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk There is no command line! Go to settings --> IPMI --> Sensors config and change the lower threshold for all used fans to something lower than current, save and then see if its still revving up.

June 3, 20179 yr Hi. Are you talking about the fan control page of IPMI tools for my motherboard? It is off, and disabled. Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk
June 3, 20179 yr On my x11 Board I cannot set thresholds. Wht I can set using ipmi or ipmi raw commands is: static fan speeds per Zone SM Auto fanspeed modes
June 3, 20179 yr Can you give an example how to do that? I already went into my bios and set it to quiet or something, but other than that, there is nothing else I can do. And yet, it keeps on revving up and down. Can you give actual commands i can try? Will test it. Where did you execute the command? Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk
June 3, 20179 yr Having the possibility to set fanspeeds in bios usually means that fanspeed isn't controlled by BMC and therefor not controllable via IPMI, please tell me which Mainbord you are using!
June 3, 20179 yr Using Supermicro X9SCM-F. Not really fan speeds. There were modes to select, optimal, standard or something. I am out, so don't recall choices. Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk
June 3, 20179 yr ok that board seems to have IPMI. Please take a look at your IPMI WebGUI, do you have the Fan Mode option at the Configuration tab?

June 3, 20179 yr to set a static fan speed log in to your unRaid box vie ssh: On 31.5.2017 at 10:38 PM, dmacias said: You can use the included ipmi-raw or ipmiraw (adds the network, ip , user and pass from ipmi settings) ipmi-raw 00 30 70 66 01 00 64 00 - Get value 01 - Set value 00 - FAN 1/2/3/4 01 - FAN A (possibly different groupings on some models) 00 to 64 - Speed (64 is max). 00 or 01 may set to auto if I remember Remember these speeds are static and not affected by any temperatures.
June 3, 20179 yr Try the commands, if it doesn't work, your board doesn't support fan speed control via IPMI and you have to chose a Mode in your Bios. this command will set your main fan zone to full speed. ipmi-raw 00 30 70 66 01 00 64 Edited June 3, 20179 yr by Diggewuff
June 3, 20179 yr Sorry, what does get value, set value mean? I only want to adjust Fan 1/2/3/4.So does the first 00 mean to set Fans 1/2/3/4? The second digits the speed? The 00 01 have been used several times, I am losing context. Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk

June 3, 20179 yr Just now, jang430 said: Thanks for the screenshot wgstarks. Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk Hope that helps. You will see a section for each fan in the config file. I would recommend noting the original settings just in case you need to change them back.
June 3, 20179 yr So I need to put in values lower than those in thresholds to prevent it from shooting up once it hits the existing lower threshold right? Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk

Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk I believe just the "Lower Non-Critical". See if that helps after you save the settings.
