# ibm-x3650-m4-silent-mode

A custom script that turn my Homelab's IBM x3650 m4 silent (Because I sleep near it)

## Installation 

You can run the following steps to install the script and made it run at startup : 

```

# Download the script

sudo curl -fsSLo /usr/local/bin/silent_mode_script.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shiipou/ibm-x3650-m4-silent-mode/main/silent_mode_script.sh

# Download the service definition

sudo curl -fsSLo /etc/systemd/system/silent_mode_script.service https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shiipou/ibm-x3650-m4-silent-mode/main/silent_mode_script.service

# Reload systemctl scripts

sudo systemctl daemon-reload

# Register and start the service

sudo systemctl enable --now silent_mode_script

```

Everything must work well now.

## Customize the curve

You can edit the script located `/usr/local/bin/silent_mode_script.sh` to change the temp values to tweak at your need.

Important value you can change is : 

- `min_temp=40`

- `max_temp=80`

and the `fan_speed` function in the `else` block to match your custom curve.

## Any impact in the perfs ?

No it shouldn't take much resources on your server :
