Hi everyone, here are some very first results and patch proposals from testing the ipmi-dcmi commands from freeipmi 0.8.1 (thanks for adding dcmi support into freeipmi).
--get-asset-tag: Assumes asset tag to be multiple of 16bytes (max read size specified in DCMI spec). Also assumes, that there is an additional length/encoding information present (1st byte) as in the raw FRU information - which is not specified in the DCMI spec. Please note, that the direct reference to the FRU Product Data Spec. has been removed in Errata/Clarification E18 of the DCMI Spec. 1.0 Revision 1.0. Basically, the asset tag can be stored somewhere else in the BMC and only needs to be retrievable via IPMI command (it's interesting that no set command is not specified). --get-power-limit: The exception action is not a bit field and OEM actions are only defined for values 0x02 ... 0x10. --get-system-power-statistics: Stops after asking for 'power_measurement' instead of 'power_reading_state.power_measurement'. --get-enhanced-system-power-statistics: The template is slightly incorrect (it asks for a fixed/required number of 2048 required rolling average time periods in the response). --get-sensor-info: The number of parsed instances is not incremented, therefore the code loops forever. --activate-deactivate-power-limit: currently core dumps in argp_parse().
