Also no idea about that system, but you may want to try 'ipmitool fru'. I
know at least our current systems will make the effort to make the DIMM SPD
info queryable via FRU.

I can't say specifically for your motherboard, but on many motherboards
it's not a bug.  The "sensor" listed below is more just an indication
that it exists, not that you can read from it.  For example, the
"sensor" might only be an event sensor and can only report events in the
SEL.
