The Temp. Sensor #29 of my HP DL380G6 seems to give me a wrong number. It says that the temperature is more than 50C (Caution: 60C, Critical: 65C) while the actual value is 13C. And I think it may be the reason why all fans run madly at 78% of the full speed and make an extremely loud noise. Please tell me where the sensor is and how to solve this problem.
The iLO is the latest version (v2.23) as well as the BIOS (2013.07.02).
Thanks a lot.

Please see: HP DL380 G6: Where is Temperature Sensor 30 (I/O Board Zone)?
I happen to be sitting in front of a DL380 G6 with a bad temperature sensor right now. I've seen these sensors got bad and require a system board replacement. So it's a bit of a warranty issue.
In addition, the riser cards on these servers tend to have problems...
In your case, though, do you have any PCIe cards installed in the system? Depending on which cards are installed, the system fans will behave accordingly.
