I have just installed CentOS 6 i386 onto an old rack server (it's gonna be a
Bacula storeage server and is a 1U 1/2 depth chassis)
I did a minimum netinstall and so far so good. However, I have one problem.
The CPU fan is going at full speed constantly. Not a real problem apart from
(a) it will affect the fan's lifespan and (b) it's noisy.
I've done some Googling and found some help. I've installed lm_sensors and run
sensors-detect.
After reboot I get the following:
[root@harpo ~]# sensors
acpitz-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
temp1: +40.0°C (crit = +75.0°C)
[root@harpo ~]#
which implies that it can read the CPU temp, but the fan is still going at
full speed. Can anyone suggest what I need to do next to enable fan speed
control?
[root@harpo ~]# more /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors
# Generated by sensors-detect on Tue Jul 11 11:49:07 2017
# This file is sourced by /etc/init.d/lm_sensors and defines the modules to
# be loaded/unloaded.
#
# The format of this file is a shell script that simply defines variables:
# HWMON_MODULES for hardware monitoring driver modules, and optionally
# BUS_MODULES for any required bus driver module (for example for I2C or SPI).
HWMON_MODULES="w83627hf"
# For compatibility reasons, modules are also listed individually as variables
# MODULE_0, MODULE_1, MODULE_2, etc.
# You should use BUS_MODULES and HWMON_MODULES instead if possible.
MODULE_0=w83627hf
[root@harpo ~]#
