Loud System Fan Noise

Symptoms:
System fans make excessive noise when the server is under normal operation.
Solutions:
1.
Check the fan status LED or other status LEDs on the front panel for any
warnings. Meanwhile, ensure that the top cover is closed properly and the air
duct has not been moved.
2.
Check the server temperature by hand or the sensor temperature in the BMC
Web interface for over-temperature.
3.
If the temperature of the chassis is too high, check the temperature of the
server room. If it is too high, adjust the air conditioner to cool the room.
4.
If the temperature of the server room isn't high, check whether the front bezel
or chassis interior is jammed with dust. If yes, clean with a soft and dry cloth,
or a specialized brush. The environment of the server room needs to be
improved to avoid over-temperature running of the server caused by too much
dust.
5.
Check if the server is operating under heavy load. Log into the BMC Web
interface to see if all the fans are identified and if the fan mode is automatic.
6.
If the instructions above do not resolve the problem, call Inspur Customer
Service Hotline (1-844-860-0011/1-760-769-1847) or email to
serversupport@inspur.com.

Alarm from the Server

Symptoms:
An alarm goes off during server startup or operation.
Solutions:
Find where the alarm comes from:
1.
If the alarm sound comes from the PSUs, check the status of the PSU LEDs on
the rear panel. If the PSU LEDs are abnormal, refer to "PSU LED Off or
Illuminates Amber" in the Section "Power-On Failure".
If the alarm sound comes from the chassis interior, remove the top cover
to find the specific source.
If the alarm comes from the RAID controller card, check the drive fault LED
for any warning or log into the RAID management interface for any drive
warning and record the detailed warning information if any.
