Síntomas

This is an example of the fan warning message, but it is seen on all fans included with the chassis. 
=====================================================
Front fan 1 requires attention for optimal performance.
Desc: A device in the chassis requires a fan type that does not match the configuration of the fan identified in the message. Some devices may experience varied performance and possible thermal errors depending on the configuration, workload, and environment.
Action: Replace the fan with a Gen2 fan during the next scheduled service. Dell recommends as soon as possible for optimal performance. For more information about recommended fan configurations, see the MX7000 User's Guide available on the support site.
=====================================================

Causa

The thermal and power optimization requirements for an MX7000 with MX760C sleds that require an optimized chassis were not checked before buying and installing the sleds.

Resolución

The following upgrades on the MX7000 chassis must be followed when installing MX760C sleds after point of sale:

  • MX7000 Gold grade (hardware version 2, Gen2) fans (customer kit PN: H2YC5/SKU: SKU 750-ADWN; included with MX solution orders with MX760c)
  • Open Manage Enterprise - Modular (OME-M) Firmware version 2.00.00
  • iDRAC version 05.10.25 or 06.10.05
  • Enterprise Infrastructure Planning Tool (EIPT)
NOTE: When selecting or upgrading the system configuration, verify the system power consumption with the Enterprise Infrastructure Planning Tool to ensure optimum power utilization.
 
NOTE: To generate the thermally optimized sled-to-slot assignments, enter the MX configuration in the EIPT tool and click Optimize.
