Hello Rob, yes, there is ipmitool version from Oracle(Sun) which has this feature. It is bundled with Hardware Management Pack, this I'm sure of. I don't know if can be downloaded separately. You can find it at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/servermgmt/tech/hardware-management-pack/index.html
If you find any issues with ipmitool from HMP, I beg of you, come back to Oracle and report it. Or even here, although this version is 1.8.10.x. FYI 'sunoem fan' doesn't work with new servers and works only with some servers. It is considered to be deprecated/not supported anymore. Best regards, Z.
