HP Proliant DL380e Gen8 - S.M.A.R.T. and other diagnostics in Proxmox or iLO
If the firmware of iLO4 is recent enough, the RedFish API is supported and you can monitor the hardware health out-of-band without installing anything extra on the operating system. I don't have a DL380e Gen8, but check_redfish works pretty well on any ProLiants with iLO4 or iLO5 I have around.

Ideal server rack configuration
If not low on budget, go with the iLO Advanced license (see here page 8). Beside remote power, KVM and remote media can you also perform the hardware monitoring using the RedFish API, we use check_redfish (Icinga2/Nagios compatible check) for that.

You can manually override Gen8 and Gen8 ProLiant fans. https://github.com/kendallgoto/ilo4_unlock It works amazingly.

Ilo4 Fan workaround
I wanted to try if the "Ilo4 unlock" from kendallgoto will work, but I can't even get into the Bios orget the server into booting. That's the project: https://github.com/kendallgoto/ilo4_unlock

Quieter cooling on Prolient G8 servers?
Most of the aforementioned stuff will give you the ability to analyse what the fans are doing and why. Armed with that information you could give give this github repo a shot - it links toa bunch of scripts which you can use/modify to suit your needs.

Help with HP fan silencing
Hi there, I flashed my iLO 4 server HP DL380 gen 8 servers with https://github.com/kendallgoto/ilo4_unlock/blob/main/README.md custom iLO firmware and was wondering if there was anyone who is using the same system who could help me with my three issues.

Does anyone have a link to the best documentation on "The Silence of the Fans" bios for Gen8 ILO4 systems?
This is my boot script to quiet my DL380p G8 down https://github.com/kendallgoto/ilo4_unlock/blob/main/scripts/kg-silence-dl380pG8.sh

Could someone please help me out with my hp server please.
Have a look at this. It has some limitations but should get your fans under control: https://github.com/kendallgoto/ilo4_unlock

SSD in 360p G8?
A workaround would be the "silence of the fans" project on github with a modified iLO firmware where you can manually controll the fans and even disable the one temp sensor thats causing the fan ramp up alltogether.
