Hi there,
a couple of weeks ago Albert Chu complained about not being able to
check out the PEF configuration on any of the machines he tested. The
explanation for this appears to be fairly simple: Unless I'm badly
mistaken most IPMI calls in ipmi-pef-and-alerting-cmds-udm.c use the
wrong NetFn: The Get/Set PEF Configuration Parameters and Alert
Immediate commands are part of the Sensor/Event NetFn (0x04), not of
Transport (0x0c).
A patch for libfreeipmi is attached. Admittedly, checking out the PEF
section isn't any more successful with the patch than it used to be,
but at least the error message changed from "unsupported command" to
"expression failed". Don't know if that's any better, and I'm not yet
familiar enough with the code to do any reasonable debugging. Anyway,
the BMC seems to send a positive return code, so I suppose FreeIPMI
misinterprets the response in some way.
Cheers,
Ingo
