Within the server, temperature sensors report server temperature to the BMC. The BMC controls
fan speed, based on this information.
Temperature sensors are found on:
•
Display panel, where a thermal sensor detects the ambient room temperature. This sensor
reading is the main parameter used to regulate fan speed, under normal conditions.
