The server supports variable fan speeds. The fans operate at minimum speed until a temperature change requires a fan
speed increase to cool the server. The server shuts down during the following temperature-related scenarios:
At POST and in the OS, iLO performs an orderly shutdown if a cautionary temperature level is detected. If the server
hardware detects a critical temperature level before an orderly shutdown occurs, the server performs an immediate
shutdown.
When the Thermal Shutdown feature is disabled in the BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU), iLO does not perform an
orderly shutdown when a cautionary temperature level is detected. Disabling this feature does not disable the server
hardware from performing an immediate shutdown when a critical temperature level is detected.
CAUTION: A thermal event can damage server components when the Thermal Shutdown feature is disabled in
the BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU).

Installing high-performance fans

CAUTION: Caution: To prevent damage server, ensure that all DIMM latches are closed and locked before installing
the fans.
CAUTION: Do not operate the server for long periods with the access panel open or removed. Operating the server
in this manner results in improper airflow and improper cooling that can lead to thermal damage.
Procedure
1. Extend the server from the rack.
2. Remove the access panel.
3. If installed, remove all fan blanks.
