This is most likely due to the fact, that the BMC uses an I2C address of
0x24 instead of the default 0x20. ipmitool then tries to bridge the get
sensor reading command with the send message command to the BMC (in
order to forward it from std. address 0x20 to address 0x24).

As a workaround, please us the ipmitool with -m 0x24 -t 0x24 command
line options (or use an older version of ipmitool like 1.8.2).

Best regards,
Holger Liebig
