The server operates at variable fan speeds. The fans operate at a minimum speed until a temperature change requires the fan speed to
increase and cool the server. If a single rotor fan fails, redundancy is lost. If two single rotor fans or one dual rotor fan fails, the server
initiates a shutdown. The server shuts down during the following temperature-related scenarios:
At POST and in the OS, iLO performs an orderly shutdown if a cautionary temperature level is detected. If the server hardware detects a
critical temperature level before an orderly shutdown occurs, the server performs an immediate shutdown.
When the Thermal Shutdown feature is disabled in the BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU), iLO does not perform an orderly shutdown
when a cautionary temperature level is detected. Disabling this feature does not disable the server hardware from performing an
immediate shutdown when a critical temperature level is detected.
CAUTION:CAUTION: A thermal event can damage server components when the Thermal Shutdown feature is disabled in the
BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU).
High-performance fans are required for ASHRAE-compliant configurations. For more information on ASHRAE, see the Hewlett Packard

The HPE Basic drive carrier has the following LEDs:
Amber/blue LED—Managed by the drive backplane in conjunction with the storage controller and is used to indicate drive status.
Green LED—Managed by the drive itself and indicates the drive activity.
