Once the flash has completed shudown your system and unplug it. Make sure to Switch the ilo back out of maintainance mode.
Create a file called autofan.service in /etc/systemd/system/ and copy this code:

ExecStart=/bin/bash /autofan.sh

Copy the Autofan.sh to the / directory

Create a corontab command to start the systemd service on startup: @reboot systemctl start autofan
enjoy silence : ) and if thats to fast or slow edit the autofan.sh to your needs.
