Like it says in the title... I upgraded the motherboard (X38ML) with the latest BIOS/BMC/FRUSDR and now the fans are maxed out making them loud as an airplane! I used the following update package...
X38ML_BIOS52_BMC15_FRUSDR6.zip
Then followed these steps which were located in a file called "release.txt" in the update package...
To Update from the embedded EFI Shell, update system firmware from Intel server EFI shell by the following steps:
- Download Intel server system firmware update package from support.intel.com
- Unzip package and copy all files to a folder in USB disk on key
- Insert USB disk on key to server USB port
- Reboot server to EFI shell
- Run command "map -r" in EFI shell to mount USB disk on key
- Run command "fs0:" to change folder to USB disk on key, USB key may also mount to
fs1:. The number of "fs" is dependent on the result of command "map -r"
- Change folder to the folder storing the firmware package
- Run command "startup.nsh" to start firmware update process
When the update process started I had to answer a few questions...
1) Do I have the "intel sr1520ml chassis", I choose NO.
2) It went through all 6 asking me "Do you have Fan X installed?" (X being 1-6). I said yes for all 6.
3) Do I want to update info such as the serial/model of some things. I said NO.
(Then BOOM! Fans at 100%) reboot... Fans still at 100%...
Ideas please! I'm going deaf...
