This script will stop each fan for a few seconds to find out which fans can be controlled by which PWM handle. This will read the changes you made to /etc/modules in the previous step, and insert the new modules into the kernel. Type yes or y to have sensors-detect insert those modules into /etc/modules. I read that it might give problems if non-existing sensors are being read.Īt the end of sensors-detect, a list of modules that need to be loaded will be displayed. Be careful if you have a different mainboard. sudo apt update & sudo apt install lm-sensors fancontrolĬonfigure lm-sensors as follows: sudo sensors-detectĪnswer YES ( y) to all YES/no questions.

Install the lm-sensors and fancontrol packages. Open a shellsession session to the server and login. On Ubuntu/Debian (Proxmox) this can be achieved by installing the lm-sensors package to read the CPU temperature data and fancontrol to control the fan speeds.
