Working AMS and iLO driver for dsm 6 are here http://xpenology.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=7640&start=10#p78810 Ciao ema Hi ema, Thanks for the link , but I got those installed already. They provide more info in the iLO but do not resolve the fan speed issue. Thanks.

Hi mats42, The sensor is just a cable connecting to the board. I just disconnected that cable. Its possible that your server might be different to me. On my ML10v2 the ambient/intake sensor is sitting at the front of the server, and the connector is at the bottom of the board. If you track the sensor cable , you will know where it is. Thanks.

Look here for how to fake the fan signal, etc.. http://homeservershow.com/forums/index.php?/topic/7294-faking-the-fan-signal/page-1 Ciao ema Hi, Thanks for the link, but its a two year old link and lots has changed with the Bios and iLO fw updates. Its not the same issue as well. What we need is the drivers from HP ESXi u2 injected into xpenology like the AMS module i've managed to work. Just don't know how/where the iLO drivers. The only solution that I found that works is to disconnect the front temp sensor and makes the iLO think that its running at 0C and the fan stays at 6%. Of-course if the cpu load/temp goes up fan spins higher. There seems to be no ill-effect of disconnecting the front intake temp sensor. By the way, DSM6 runs fine as a VM in HP ESXi u2 with no fan issues. Fan stays at 6% at any ambient temp for me. The only thing is that the HDDs wont spindown/sleep as they are running in RDM mode from the HP B120i controller.

1. You miss the point. There is no RPM signal in the connector so you can't send one. The ILO requires a different type of signal (rotation locked/tach). If you try to send a RPM signal on that wire the ILO will see the fan as faulty and shut down the system directly. 2. Not often but have I seen it happend on HP servers -yes and why take the risk when you don't have to 3. Not on a microserver. At 10% system load with 20C ambient temp (calm winter day) about 6-8% is enough. At 90% cpu load it will need at least 15-20% and the noice difference is huge so therefore a temp controlled solution is the best 4. Well, two small problems - there is no 3 or 4 pin fan connector in a microserver .......... Only a HP only six pin and there is no rpm pin in that since the ILO doesnt messure RPM. It messures temp and if the temp isn't right it orders the fan to higher speeds. The ILO will also order higher fan speeds if it can't read drive temps - Values it tries to read from the missing driver 5. Since the "problem" is that Xpenology doesn't contain the driver HP do provide - HP can't fix it but we may be able to if we include the ILO amd AMS drivers. Hence the request for including them. The ams driver was hacked into 5.X-somwthing (I read about it earlier) Hi, You are I think exactly correct. My HP ML10v2 runs on 6% all day when the temp here these days is between 22C to 37C during the day, when running the HP ESXi u2 with VMs on it. Only if the xpenology Vm is doing the plex transcoding or something, then the fan will go a bit higher may me 15% or 20%. But, when running baremetal it runs at 18% to start off the day at about 22C, and then keeps on going up during the day to 60% at about 31+C. Which is very annoying. So something is really missing there, and I think there are the drivers issue. I have successfully included the AMS module that I found in another forum, so I can now see the AMS data , but still the fan is issue is there. Thanks.

Anyone showing there fan speeds, please must also mention there ambient temp reading as well. As I said, mine goes up from 18% to 60% fan speed, from 22C to 32C. Thats what my ambient temps gets to here in North Queensland Australia. While running the same bios settings in HP ESXi U2, the fan runs at 6% all day with any ambient temp. So in xpenology loader there is something missing that makes the fan goes as the ambient temp goes up. Thanks.

I have DSM 6.0.2 working on my BareMetal HP ML10v2 server. The only issue is the fan speed. I had this server running HP ESXi 6.0 U2 running with DSM 5.2 without any issues and fan speed at 6% at idle and most of the times. Now with BareMetal using Jun's 1.01 image, the fan speed is a6 16% at 21C, 18% at 24C, ----------60% at 31C ambient temp. While at the same ambient temps while running ESXi, the fan stays at 6%. So, my question is , are there any drivers missing? Can I somehow use the same drivers from HP ESXi? Thanks.

Hi Everyone, Thanks for all the help from everyone in this thread. I have the Jun's 1.01 running baremetal on my HP ML10v2 with no issues. The SHR works, the btrfs works, got an SSD in TRIM and working as SSD cache and another 1TB drive only for the moment for data as Volume 1 that was used in DSM 5.2 previously. So all is good, except the fan speed of my ML10v2 is very loud. Its staying at about 35-45% on idle and when I play a movie on PMS, it just goes like a jet plane, cannot even hear the movie playing. When i was running DSM 5.2 in VmWare ESXi, it was fine, fan speed sitting at 6% idle and when playing Plex movie around 10-18%. But this is too loud. Originally I tried DSM 6 using Jun's image on ESXi and it worked fine with no fan speed issues , so same as DSM 5.2. The only thing is that in VmWare ESXi, the HDDS do not spin down and/or sleep and there is no SMART available. Also in ESXi, PMS struggles to encode H265 and also the DTV using playstation Play TV dual tuner , stutters and choppy video. So Ideally, I would like keep it running in Baremetal, but the loud fan speed is a deal breaker. So I am thinking going back to DSM 5.2 in ESXi. Anyone using the same server? How's your fan speeds? Anything else I can do to make it quite like as in ESXi ? Can any of the experts here help with may be if there are drivers needed etc etc ? By the way, the ESXi Image that i used is the HP build 6.0 U2. Can I copy any drivers etc from there for the fan control? Any help is really appreciated, Please. Thanks.

Hi M3kk, Thanks for the tip. I have the same server HP ML10V2. That image on page 10 didnt work for me as it was going into the install loop, but another image did worked. How is the fan speed on your server? Normally it should stay at 6%, when I was running HP ESXi 6.0 U2. Mine was at 18% with the original install, but now it has jumped to 29-34% constant. Have you also noticed the time of DSM keeps on resetting at every reboot, and the server Bios time changes to 02/02/2015 as well ? Any answers, recommendations would be helpful. Thanks Did you try the latest image V1.01 ? Hi, Thanks for replying. Yes, I am running latest V1.01 from Jun, for the last 24 hours, and the speed of the fan is hovering around 18% without any load. Which is still way more 3times more than what It was sitting at in HP ESXi 6.0 U2 image at 6% fan speed. I have noticed the speed even more while running a movie in plex. Anyone else using any image in ML10V2 and what fan speeds they are getting?
