Hello!

We are about to adapt openHPI 2.7.3 for our diagnostic application.
Currently we are working on the fan controlling. I finally
succeeded to make openHPI generate one fan control for each of
our fan controller. So far so good.

Now I tried to test this using hpifan. The function saHpiControlGet()
returned an invalid command. This was true, indeed - as we haven't had
implemented this functionality yet. But while we were tracing this case
we were a bit puzzeled about the fact that the ipmidirect plugin
did not send the corresponding IPMI message GET_FAN_LEVEL using
the Send Message command.

If I understand IPMI 1.5 right all messages _not_ for the MCH must
be sent using Send Message so they can be bridged. The IPMI messages
for the sensors are transmitted using SendMessage. The fan control 
messages are not. Why???  Is the fan handling different from that?

Please: Anyone that has additinal information about this issue may
write me some lines.

Thank you very much in advance.

Stefan Sperling
