Hi John, it seems to me that you are using the IPMI monitoring plugin, and that the ipmimonitoring script (which is executed by the plugin) causes this error.
I don't know "ipmi_ctx_open_outofband_2_0: bad rmcpplus status code" in detail, but maybe you get this, because you query the IPMI BMC too often? How often does the plugin query your server's IPMI BMC? For further investigation you could try to execute ipmimonitoring with the --debug option: /usr/local/sbin/ipmimonitoring -h 192.xxx.xx.xxx --config-file /usr/local/etc/freeipmi/freeipmi.conf -g Temperature --quiet-cache --debug best regards, Werner On Die, 2012-01-31 at 02:06 -0800, john s. wrote: > > Hello erverybody > > Software: > ubuntu 10.04 > freeipmi 1.0.9 > > Hardware: > ilo2 fw: 2.05 12/16/2010 > > > I use freeipmi to check our ilo2 kvm over nagios > > so far so good but , but in an intervall from 20 seconds there comes the > following error : > > ipmi_ctx_open_outofband_2_0: bad rmcpplus status code > -> Execution of ipmimonitoring failed with return code 1. > -> ipmimonitoring was executed with the following parameters: > /usr/local/sbin/ipmimonitoring -h 192.xxx.xx.xxx --config-file > /usr/local/etc/freeipmi/freeipmi.conf -g Temperature --quiet-cache > --sdr-cache-recreate > > > > does anybody know what this error message means?? > > > best regards > > john s. > > > > -- : Werner Fischer : Technology Specialist : Thomas-Krenn.AG | The server-experts : http://www.thomas-krenn.com | http://www.thomas-krenn.com/wiki _______________________________________________ Freeipmi-users mailing list Freeipmi-users@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freeipmi-users
