Small extra note for anybody trying to tame these dcs C6005 servers, if you replace the fans, order the Noctua NF-R8 regular fans, DO NOT bother with the pwm. If these fans go into lower rpm mode, they don't push enough air to cool this server. I pulled the pwm pin (4th pin) to get the fans to run full speed. By doing so, I was able to get the hottest sled #2, to run at CPU0 - 58', and CPU1 - 48', and the SR9050 - 85'c (ordered a 30x30x7mm fan to keep it cooler).
Also, if anybody needs (and for sake of record), you can adjust the lower critical fan sensor alarm with the following:
On a linux box (I used centos 7):
yum install ipmitool (let it install with defaults)
then run:
ipmitool -I lan -H {IP_ADDRESS_OF_BCM} -U %Username% -P %password% sensor thresh "SYS FAN 1" lcr 800
(this allows you to adjust the Lower CRitical to 800 rpm, adjust the 800 as you need).
This second command allows you to adjust the upper warning of the CPUs (should you need it):
ipmitool -I lan -H {IP_ADDRESS_OF_BCM} -U %Username% -P %password% sensor thresh "CPU0_TEMP" ucr 80
This set the Upper CRitical to 80'
Taken from another forum thread:
"The thresholds listed are, in order: lnr, lcr, lnc, unc, ucr, unr
These are acronyms for:
Lower Non-Recoverable
Lower Critical
Lower Non-Critical
Upper Non-Critical
Upper Critical
Upper Non-Recoverable"
In case you want to adjust any other settings.
The only thing I havn't figured out is how to adjust the logoff timer for the ipmi web interface (just for testing for the next few days, I'd like to keep them open, if anybody knows how to adjust this, that would be awesome!).
