Re: Control 12mm Fan Speed on s5000vsa + sc5299brp + thermaltake cpus fans

Since you're using SC5299BRP, please check if the rear fan is connected to the correct fan header. It should be connected to SYS FAN 6. Also, if you don't have a drive bay fan, answer "No" when prompted for SYS FAN 1 during FRUSDR update. If the status LED is still amber, you should run the SEL Viewer to check for system errors.

Thks Edward, but i did this in the past days, but i did again today, dont help, and the only errors that i get from the SEL Viewer are those that i explain in the first post :

"(critical error) the cpu speed is too slow 1000-1400 rpm"

But secons later its 3500-3600. I think that this cooler are slower to get 3500-3600 rpms and BMC marks this error like critical and the status led start blinking and the 12mm fan run to full speed but when the cpus cooler get 3500-3600 rpm, BMC say that rigth now its ok but the status led is still blinking in amber and the 12mm cooler still to full speed. The server run ok, i have no problems with it but the noise is too loud and like is at 4 meters of me its annoying. What can i do to solve this?

thks and sorry about my english

When "Other" chassis is selected, all fans run at full speed by default. To change this behavior, you'll need to manually edit the SDR file and do thermal test by your self.

For more information about modifying the SDR file, check the following post:

Edward, thks for your help, but i see in the Intel ASC that the cpu fans at running to 900-1000 rpm with no load, but if i run a big process like virtualbox and open 4 virtual manchines, i see in the Intel ASC the cpu fans running to full speed (3500-3600 rpm). In both cases the 12mm fan is running at full speed (3300 rpm). So the cpu fans are working depend of the temperatura or speed of the cpus but the 12mm fan dont. And like i say before, if i choose the correct case (sc5299brp), i have the status led blinking in amber and all fans running to full speed even when the server have no load, in Intel ASC i see allway cpu fans runniing to 3500-3600 rpm, and the 12mm fan to 3300 rpm all the time. I will se the post that you give me but i feel that maybe the problem is no the same.

thks and sorry about my english.

News, i update again the SDR with the intel deployment assistand cd, and this time choose "other" in case select, and click "yes" on cpu fan 1 and cpu fan 2, then "no" to fan system 3 to 5, and "yes" again to the fan system 6 (that were is the 12mm cooler), then restart, and now the status led is in solid green, but the 12mm cooler still run to full speed, so enter the setup to see if it is in acoustic mode or in performance, and is in Acoustic, so now i have the status led ok in solid green but the problem persist, and my ears still crying. If anybody can help I appreciate it very much.

Control 12mm Fan Speed on s5000vsa + sc5299brp + thermaltake cpus fans

Hi People,

I have a intel s5000vsa MB with on an intel sc5299brp pedestal server case, with 2 xeons e5410 and 24gb of ram, the server works ok but since i change the originals cpu coolers with the thermaltake CL-P303 (the old originals have 3 years running and fail one time so i change both, i cant get the intel originals again here in argentina and the only 771 coolers that a could get are the thermeltake cl-p303) the status led is blinking in amber, and the 12mm fan started running at full speed and did not slow down even when the computer was idle, its like was config in Performence mode in setup but its in Acoustic mode. I update the BIOS, BMC, and FRUSDR but the problem persist. I also run selview and showme an error at boot time :

- the cpu speed is too slow 1200-1400 rpm but secons later its 3500-3600. I think that this cooler are slower to get 3500-3600 rpms and BMC marks this error like critical and the status led start blinking and the 12mm fan run to full speed but when the cpus cooler get 3500-3600 rpm, BMC say that rigth now its ok but the status led is still blinking in amber and the 12mm cooler still to full speed. The server run ok, i have no problems with it but the noise is too loud and like is at 4 meters of me its annoying. What can i do to solve this?

Almost one year and no answer to my problem, and i try to find info for other places and, nothing. Anyway i buy en sc5299dp an solve the problem, but its not good that intel cant say you from any place what happen with your product.

There isnot stand-offs on the chassis which are hitting the motherboard.

If i change the power supply like i say in the first its the same the server not start and the led on the PSU turn orange. I had tried with 2 PSU thats are working ok in the other chassis.

I follow all the manuals to build the server, and i use the rubber bumper thats come with the server chassis.

I think that the orange led in the PSU indicates one error that i cant find any info in the intels manuals.

Thks, and sorry about my english

I have Checked that the chassis mounting screws correctly line up with the holes in the mother board.

What is a "overcurrent trip" ?

You say that "If this unit works in a different box and the MB works in a different box, then the BOX is shorting the power" so, why the box is shorting the power? can i fix it?

Driver? for a CPU? centos 6 use linux 2.6.32 so its actually new but i never hear about drivers for CPUs.

tks

Not much, its just for a backup server, and to use kvm to host a virtual manchine for a time while the server principal have to do a support job (like change a disk, etc..).

And and cant use ebay because the taxes are very high, like 50% of the product plus the ship.

S5000VSA on SC5299BRP won't post - PSU led turns Orange when a push power button

webadmin@intel.com — Mon, 03 Jan 2011 13:50:10 GMT

I have 2 s5000vsa and 2 sc5299brp, but one of the sc5299brp server chasis seems that not work, when i install a mobo on it and push the power button to start the server, nothing happen and the led of the PSU turn orange from yellow. I know that is not problem of the mobo or of the PSU because if i put the same mobo and the same PSU in the other sc5299brp, its start ok and all works ok. So what means the orange led in the PSU? and how to fix this problem?

thks and sorry about my english
