I've noticed the same thing on RHE 5.4 since a recent OpenIPMI update:
OpenIPMI.x86_64 2.0.16-5.el5_4.1 installed Looks like the 2.0.16-5 update broke things... pretty much everything around and after the ECC checks starts to return "Not Readable". -- Shaun Qualheim System Administrator CTB/McGraw-Hill Online Systems ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Priya Sehgal Sent: Friday, October 23, 2009 4:33 PM To: [email protected] Subject: IPMI not showing all the sensor readings Hello, I have PowerEdge 610 with Intel Xeon 5520 Processor and CentOS 5.3 installed on it. I installed OpenIPMI-tools-2.0.16-5.el5.x86_64 and using ipmitool to monitor the power usage, voltage, temperature of various components by executing "ipmitool sdr" command. It lists a bunch of sensors which have their readings as "Not Readable". E.g. CPU Temp Interf | Not Readable | ns 1. Can someone please let me know how can I retrieve the value of this. 2. SDR gives a long list of sensors and many are named as Temp. I do not understand which component's temperature is it displaying. Is there a manual which explains what each of the sensors signify. 3. Is there a special sensor for reporting Power and temperature of each CPU? If yes, which one? 4. What is the resolution and accuracy of these sensors? This is important to me, as I am doing some experiments on these machines and need to report various IPMI attributes. -- Thanks and Regards, Priya -------------------------------------------------------- The information contained in this message is intended only for the recipient, and may be a confidential attorney-client communication or may otherwise be privileged and confidential and protected from disclosure.
