No, that is the correct syntax. Blacklisting won't prevent the component
class from being checked in the first place, it will only suppress any
info about blacklisted components it in the output and plugin return
value. To skip fans alltogether use the '--check' option like this:
'--check fans=0'.

However, unless this is a blade system and the plugin is unable to
identify it as such for some reason, your server HAS fan probes and
you're having an OMSA problem. The fact that you get errors for other
probes such as temperature and voltage confirms this.

You need to recheck that OMSA works, that all relevant OMSA components
are installed and running etc. It may be as simple as restarting OMSA,
but it could also be more complex (e.g. BIOS/firmware upgrade needed).
These errors are pretty generic, but the problem is that OMSA isn't
working properly on that server.

PS. See this URL about configuring Nagios to not escape HTML code in the
plugin output (to avoid the literal '<br/>'):
