Knowledge Article: ID B0EA1D401: I/O module %d over recommended temperature

Description

The temperature for the specified I/O module exceeds the recommended temperature.

Causes

The advanced management module has detected that the temperature for the I/O module exceeds the recommended temperature.

Implications

The fans will run at full speed.

Resolutions

Perform these steps:

  1. Check the room temperature to ensure that it is within the operating specifications for the chassis.

  2. Make sure that all fan/blower modules are running. Replace fan modules if necessary.

  3. Make sure that a device or filler is installed in each bay in the front and rear of the chassis, and make sure that there is nothing covering the bays. Any missing components can cause a major reduction in airflow for the blade server.

  4. Make sure that there is nothing covering the chassis (that will obstruct airflow through the chassis).
