Description 7210 SAS-D chassis with 128MB flash has a fan to help in circulating the air inside the chassis. It
does not provide for cooling. This command allows the operator to control the operation of the fan.
Operators can choose to either switch 'on' or 'off' the fan permanently or let the system control the
operation of the fan by setting the value to 'auto'.
In auto mode, software controls the operation of the fan. It switches the fan 'on', if the system defined
temperature threshold is exceeded and switches it 'off' when temperature falls back to normal. It also
ensures that fan is not switched on and off more than once in 30 minutes.
Default auto
Parameters on — The operation of the fan is controlled by the user and it is always switched on/operating.
off — The operation of the fan is controlled by the user and it is always switched off/not operating.
auto — The fan is controlled by the system. It is switched on when the temperature threshold exceeds
certain value and is switched off when the temperature threshold falls back below a certain value.
