I've been using the following sequence on a number of systems, which someone on this list pointed me to a few weeks ago, and it works great. Significantly speeds up the processing times from multiple seconds to sub-seconds:
ipmitool sdr dump /tmp/xxx ipmitool sdr -c -S /tmp/xxx type fan However, there is an older system I'm trying this on and though the 'dump' appears to wors fine, when I try the query command using -S I get (just the first few lines): [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# ipmitool sdr -c -S /tmp/xxx type fan invalid sdr header version 01 invalid sdr header version 69 invalid sdr header version 20 This is ipmitool V1.8.2 and it works fine without -S, but takes about 5 seconds to process the command and I really want to use -S because of its speed. any suggestions on how to track down the problem? -mark ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Ipmitool-devel mailing list Ipmitool-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ipmitool-devel
