| Hi List,

|       I saw the same question on linux-Poweredge mailing list. Thought

| PE2950 box and faced the same issue.
| 
| How can I enable (or can I?) CPU temperature reporting via IPMI on a
| Poweredge 1950. 
| Processor is "Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU           X5365  @ 3.00GHz".
| 
| I see the value for ambient temperature OK but everything else is
| disabled:
| 
| 
| [EMAIL PROTECTED] mail]# /usr/bin/ipmitool  -I open sdr type temp
| 
| Temp             | 01h | ns  |  3.1 | Disabled
| Temp             | 02h | ns  |  3.2 | Disabled
| Temp             | 05h | ns  | 10.1 | Disabled
| Temp             | 06h | ns  | 10.2 | Disabled
| Ambient Temp     | 08h | ok  |  7.1 | 25 degrees C
| CPU Temp Interf  | 76h | ns  |  7.1 | Disabled

After the Dempsey CPU's temperature no longer works via normal
motherboard based methods.  What you need to do instead is make
a driver to talk to the CPU directly.  FreeBSD has such a driver
called "coretemp":
     coretemp -- device driver for Intel Core on-die digital thermal sensor
So pretty much all newer Intel CPU's need this method used to get
temps.
