HP ProLiant DL380e Gen8 has high fan speed after installing second CPU



Today I installed a second CPU in our HP ProLiant DL380e Gen8, and after booting the fans all went to 99.96%. This causes the server to make an enormous amount of noise.




Could it damage the server? What could I do to fix this?
I already removed all the fans and put them back in, rebooted the entire server,...



I'm running HP_ESXi-5.1.0, CPU is twice Intel Xeon E5-2420 0 @ 1.90 GHz.



This is the current memory configuration:

After upgrading all the software, the fans kept blowing 99%. However I suddenly noted a warning during boot time that fan 1 was missing - I switched fan 6 to slot 1 and the issue is now resolved.
