Claim 12:
13. The method of claim 12, further comprising:
receiving, by the fan control system from the at least one chassis surface temperature sensor, a third chassis surface temperature that exceeds a third chassis surface temperature threshold that is higher than the second chassis surf ace temperature threshold;
determining, by the fan control system in response to receiving the third chassis surface temperature that exceeds the third chassis surface temperature threshold, that the fourth fan operating level for the second fan system is the maximum fan operating level for the second fan system; and
operating, by the fan control system in response to receiving the third chassis surface temperature that exceeds the third chassis surface temperature threshold and determining that the second fan system is operating at the maximum fan operating level for the second fan system, the first fan system.
