What does 'ipmitool fru' show? It should show the inventory data to identify the power supplies. And if it is normal, there should also be a power supply status sensor for each supply in the sensor output.

So let me try again I have a supermicro 1026T-URF with only one cpu and I would like to identify each of its two power supplies through ipmi. So, I installed openipmi and ipmitool and tested it by sending commands such as ipmitool -I open sensor CPU1 Temp | 0x0 | discrete | 0x0000| na | na | na | na | na | na CPU2 Temp | na | discrete | na | na | na | na | na | na | na System Temp | 33.000 | degrees C | ok | -9.000 | -7.000 | -5.000 | 75.000 | 77.000 | 79.000 CPU1 Vcore | 0.936 | Volts | ok | 0.808 | 0.816 | 0.824 | 1.352 | 1.360 | 1.368 CPU2 Vcore | na | Volts | na | 0.808 | 0.816 | 0.824 | 1.352 | 1.360 | 1.368 +1.5V | 1.512 | Volts | ok | 1.320 | 1.328 | 1.336 | 1.656 | 1.664 | 1.672 +5V | 5.120 | Volts | ok | 4.416 | 4.448 | 4.480 | 5.536 | 5.568 | 5.600 [...] ipmitool -I open chassis power status Chassis Power is on Knowing it has a X8DTU-F motherboard and reading http://www.supermicro.ws/support/faqs/faq.cfm?faq=9659S, I pulled the power cord to one of the power supplies and then tried root@ubuntu:~# ipmitool raw 0x06 0x52 0x07 0x78 0x01 0x78 Data length = 4 00 root@ubuntu:~# ipmitool raw 0x06 0x52 0x07 0x7a 0x01 0x78 Data length = 4 00 root@ubuntu:~# Which would mean *both* power supplies were boink. Ok then, I plugged the power supply back and ran the same commands again... just to get the same output. Am I doing anything wrong here? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------ Index, Search & Analyze Logs and other IT data in Real-Time with Splunk Collect, index and harness all the fast moving IT data generated by your applications, servers and devices whether physical, virtual or in the cloud.
