Confirmed working. It's not really a 3-PIN JST PH 2.0 but it does fit (very snug). I'm just stoked to have a fan cooling the crazy x557 chipset when the system is only running BMC.
supermicro and the main customer don't want false alarms.
it is designed to RUN in a server chassis, install, turn on, turn off after 2/3 years for scrapping / replaced by next gen.
Yea. I figured that these boards are meant for 24/7 of constant use or just powered on. But this is a good work around for outlier use cases.
supermicro uses Molex ( micro blade ) but they are hard to get in small counts. if you need only one JSTs are a good solution.
cross posting here because I suspect this is of interest to people in this thread as well. In the pursuit of making my X10QBi quiet, I've been digging into
I don't have a good feel for how well this scales to other boards, however.
ipmitool raw commands to better understand how it works, with some limited success. If you have an interest in understanding fan control for this specific board, or how ipmitool raw allows one to manipulate the fan controller directly, have a read of my investigation here: https://forums.servethehome.com/ind...icro-sys-4048b-trft.27636/page-13#post-488188I don't have a good feel for how well this scales to other boards, however.
It seems to be an edge case, not like other X10/X11 boards.
smfc project just implemented the support of Supermicro X10QBi motherboards, you can give a try.
Hey guys, have you seen any information about Supermicro X14 IPMI raw commands?
My experience is that usual X10-X13 IPMI commands are working, but the fan levels are overwritten by BMC control logic.
I made some investigation and experiment here with one of the smfc user without success:
github.com
I would appreciate any link to a success story.

load the bin file in HxD or your favorite hex editor. search for "img"

extract image-rofs with 7z to folder.
I think I managed to reverse engineer the new IPMI raw commands for X14 motherboards, but I'm waiting for a test on real hardware.
The important files in the firmware implementing the RAW IPMI commands:
libsupermicrooemcmds.so.0.0.1libmanualcmds.so.0.0.0
If you or anybody can check that on a X14 motherboard it could help as well.
RolloZ170, thanks for your help!
Code:
#Set FAN to full speed
saa.efi -c RawCommand --raw "30 45 01 01"
Set FAN back to normal behave
#saa.efi -c RawCommand --raw "30 45 01 00"
i have to use saa.efi tool local because i can't get access with ipmitool form other PC.
But I can access BMC dashboard and iKVM from that PC, disabled Firewall doesn't help. even IPMIView does not see the X14SBW-F
smfc v5.3.0 just implemented a generic X9 motherboard support with these command.
You can give a try. It was tested on a X9DRi-LN4F+ motherboard.
