First off sorry if this is in the wrong place but I couldn't see a better place for it.
I recently got a DL380 G6 cheap and I'm planning on consolidating all my other physical machines onto this. While I'm building a custom cabinet to put everything in I've been having a play around with the DL380 as its not needed just yet, and up to now I've been really happy with. So I've finished playing around with it now and I am looking at starting the proper permanent configuration now, but since I've re-formatted and reinstalled Proxmox its become really really loud.
As far as I can tell the temps are all fine and not overheating anywhere and it all seems to be a bit random. It's not really under any sort of load as I've just been doing the initial updates/config and can be sat left idling for it to slowly ramp up the speed of the fans. It then wont slow them down and only a restart will reset the speeds.
When I first got it I could sit it in the living room and mess about on it and the sound would be hardly noticeable, but now it drowns out the TV.
It's not going to be a problem when the project is finished, but I'm wondering if somethings not right to begin with.
I've looked into a BIOS update, but all I can see is I need a support agreement to get one?? Yeah wont be paying for that, so is there anywhere else I may be able to acquire one from??
Also would resetting the BIOS be worth a try?? Or changing CMOS battery??
Thanks
Iain
