Dear freeipmi users/developers, I'm trying to monitor an Intel SR2500 server (this server has the Intel S5000PAL mainboard in it).
While I can monitor it using ipmitool, I keep getting errors with ipmimonitoring from freeipmi. Also using the "-W" parameter for workarounds (as described in the manpage of ipmimonitoring) doesn't help: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- [r...@tpw ~]# ipmitool -I lan -H 192.168.1.211 -U admin -P relation sdr BB +1.2V Vtt | 1.20 Volts | ok BB +1.5V AUX | 1.47 Volts | ok BB +1.5V | 1.48 Volts | ok BB +1.8V | 1.79 Volts | ok BB +3.3V | 3.35 Volts | ok BB +3.3V STB | 3.35 Volts | ok ^C [r...@tpw ~]# ipmimonitoring -h 192.168.1.211 -u admin -p relation ipmi_monitoring_sensor_readings_by_record_id: authentication type unavailable for attempted privilege level [r...@tpw ~]# ipmimonitoring -h 192.168.1.211 -W="intel20" -u admin -p relation ipmi_monitoring_sensor_readings_by_record_id: authentication type unavailable for attempted privilege level [r...@tpw ~]# rpm -q freeipmi freeipmi-0.5.1-3.fc9.i386 [r...@tpw ~]# -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I checked the manpage: "authentication type unavailable for attempted privilege level" - The authentication type you wish to authenticate with is not available for this privilege level. Please try again with an alternate authentication type or alternate privilege level. It may also be possible the available authenti- cation types you can authenticate with are not correctly configured on the remote BMC. But the settings at the BMC side seem to be ok: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- [r...@tpw ~]# ipmitool -I lan -H 192.168.1.211 -U admin -P relation lan print 1 Set in Progress : Set Complete Auth Type Support : NONE MD5 PASSWORD Auth Type Enable : Callback : : User : : Operator : : Admin : MD5 PASSWORD : OEM : IP Address Source : Static Address IP Address : 192.168.1.211 Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0 MAC Address : 00:0e:0c:ea:92:a2 [...] [r...@tpw ~]# ipmimonitoring -h 192.168.1.211 -a MD5 -u admin -p relation ipmimonitoring: authentication type unavailable for attempted privilege level [r...@tpw ~]# -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Also compiling the newest version and using it does not help: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- [r...@tpw ~]# ipmimonitoring -h 192.168.1.211 -u admin -p relation ipmimonitoring: authentication type unavailable for attempted privilege level [r...@tpw ~]# ipmimonitoring -h 192.168.1.211 -W="intel20" -u admin -p relation ipmimonitoring: authentication type unavailable for attempted privilege level [r...@tpw ~]# rpm -q freeipmi freeipmi-0.7.11-1.fc9.i386 [r...@tpw ~]# -------------------------------------------------------------------------- In contrast, monitoring a system with a new Supermicro X8DT3-F mainboard works fine with freeipmi-0.5.1-3.fc9.i386 and also with freeipmi-0.7.11-1.fc9.i386: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- [r...@tpw ~]# ipmitool -I lan -H 10.10.10.233 -U ADMIN -P ADMIN sdr CPU1 Temp | 0 unspecified | ok CPU2 Temp | no reading | ns System Temp | 45 degrees C | ok CPU1 Vcore | 0.98 Volts | ok CPU2 Vcore | no reading | ns CPU1 DIMM | 1.51 Volts | ok CPU2 DIMM | no reading | ns ^C [r...@tpw ~]# ipmimonitoring -h 10.10.10.233 -u ADMIN -p ADMIN Record_ID | Sensor Name | Sensor Group | Monitoring Status| Sensor Units | Sensor Reading 4 | System Temp | Temperature | Nominal | C | 45.000000 5 | CPU1 Vcore | Voltage | Nominal | V | 0.976000 6 | CPU2 Vcore | Voltage | Nominal | V | 0.000000 7 | CPU1 DIMM | Voltage | Nominal | V | 1.512000 8 | CPU2 DIMM | Voltage | Nominal | V | 0.000000 9 | +1.5V | Voltage | Nominal | V | 1.504000 10 | +3.3V | Voltage | Nominal | V | 3.240000 11 | +3.3VSB | Voltage | Nominal | V | 3.240000 12 | +5V | Voltage | Nominal | V | 5.120000 13 | +12V | Voltage | Nominal | V | 12.190000 14 | VBAT | Voltage | Nominal | V | 3.240000 15 | Fan1 | Fan | Nominal | RPM | 6528.000000 16 | Fan2 | Fan | Nominal | RPM | 7072.000000 17 | Fan3 | Fan | Nominal | RPM | 0.000000 18 | Fan4 | Fan | Nominal | RPM | 0.000000 19 | Fan5 | Fan | Nominal | RPM | 5644.000000 20 | Fan6 | Fan | Nominal | RPM | 5304.000000 21 | Fan7 | Fan | Nominal | RPM | 7072.000000 22 | Fan8 | Fan | Nominal | RPM | 0.000000 23 | Intrusion | Physical Security | Nominal | N/A | '' 24 | PS Failure | Power Supply | Nominal | N/A | '' [r...@tpw ~]# -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Does anybody have an idea how this problem could be fixed? best regards, Werner _______________________________________________ Freeipmi-users mailing list Freeipmi-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freeipmi-users
