Question
With ipmiutil, we are changing the IPMI threshold values.
When Fan Control is set to " Set Fan to Standard Speed" in the IPMI web interface: how is the FAN control influenced when IPMI threshold values are adjusted?

(it seems that lowering the upper temp. thresholds can lead to FANs running at full speed, like we have experienced - is that true in this way?)

Answer
Fan mode is set by specific value.
Any threshold change to temperature won’t affect the fan mode.

However, what you are seeing is the result of lowering the threshold of the _CPU Temperature_ sensors. This will lead to the situation - as soon as the upper values of the CPU temperature are reached, the fans will turn to full speed (which is a good thing).
