Intel® Server Boards – Loud Fan Issues Troubleshooting Wizard
Open the top cover of your system to check the Fan Fault LEDs (Light-Emitting Diode).
If your chassis has an intrusion switch to check the top cover status, close the switch manually to prevent a false-positive error.

Rumbling
|
Why it matters
If there is a rumbling sound, ensure that cables aren’t impeding the fan. Verify that all cables are connected properly and do not obstruct airflow into and out of the chassis. You may refer to the Intel® Server System Service Guide for cable routing.
Check whether all the fan connectors are properly inserted or try to remove and reinsert the connectors.

Perform CMOS clear procedure.
Things to remember
- Clearing the CMOS will clear all the settings in BIOS and will set it to default.
- If onboard RAID is configured, the settings will be set back to defaults, and you will need to reconfigure the RAID settings in BIOS.
- If the data is not backed up or if it is important, data backup is recommended.
- You will find the location of the CMOS jumper and procedure of clearing the CMOS in the technical product specification of the Intel® Server Board.

If the fault LED was lit, it means that the fan unit encountered a significant error. Check whether the fan connector was properly inserted.
Why it matters
- For fan fault LED locations, always check the technical product specification of the Intel® Server Board.
- The LED has two states: On and Off. The BMC lights a fan fault LED if the associated fan-tech sensor has a lower critical threshold even status asserted.
