Amber light on one of my redundant power supplies suggested
something went wrong. That's what I've found in SEL:

 978 | 04/21/2008 | 19:12:03 | Power Supply #0x70 | Failure detected | 
Deasserted
 98c | 04/21/2008 | 19:12:04 | Power Unit #0x02 | Fully Redundant
 9a0 | 04/21/2008 | 19:12:04 | Power Unit #0x02 | Redundancy Lost
 9b4 | 04/21/2008 | 19:12:04 | Power Unit #0x02 | Non-Redundant: 
Sufficient from Insufficient

Ok.. lets have a look:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# ipmitool sdr list | grep PS
PS1 AC Current   | 0.06 Amps         | ok
PS2 AC Current   | 0.93 Amps         | ok
PS1 +12V Current | 0 Amps            | ok
PS2 +12V Current | 15.50 Amps        | ok
PS1 +12V Power   | 0 Watts           | ok
PS2 +12V Power   | 184 Watts         | ok
PS1 Status       | 0x03              | ok
PS2 Status       | 0x01              | ok

Hm... OK? Let's look deeper:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# ipmitool sensor get "PS2 Status"
Locating sensor record...
Sensor ID              : PS2 Status (0x71)
 Entity ID             : 10.2
 Sensor Type (Discrete): Power Supply
 States Asserted       : Power Supply
                         [Presence detected]

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# ipmitool sensor get "PS1 Status"
Locating sensor record...
Sensor ID              : PS1 Status (0x70)
 Entity ID             : 10.1
 Sensor Type (Discrete): Power Supply
 States Asserted       : Power Supply
                         [Presence detected]
                         [Failure detected]

SO, how come sensors report "ok" while it's definitly
NOT OK? Another sensor also misleads:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# ipmitool sdr list | grep "Power Redundancy"
Power Redundancy | 0x0a              | ok

while:

# ipmitool sensor get "Power Redundancy"
Locating sensor record...
Sensor ID              : Power Redundancy (0x2)
 Entity ID             : 21.1
 Sensor Type (Discrete): Power Unit
 States Asserted       : Redundancy State
                         [Redundancy Lost]
                         [Non-Redundant: Sufficient from Redundant]

PS. Intel SR1550SASR box with S5000PAL m-b
