The mBMC firmware version should be v2.39 or greater.
I see that 2.40 is posted.

It looks like the mBMC is getting hung.  It might be the mBMC and it
might be the driver, it's hard to say.  However, can you check to be
sure you are running the most current firmware?  I know older mBMC loads
had a lot of problems that have been fixed.  You can download a CD image
from Intel at
http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/se7320sp2, click on
"Software and Drivers" in the left column, select "All Operating
Systems", and download the individual firmware.  It's unfortunately a
little difficult to do, although I think the Linux zip utility will
unzip the file.

If that doesn't help, can you try a couple of things?

* Does unloading the IPMI driver and i801 driver, then reloading fix the
problem?

* I don't seem to be able to get a good message trace with ipmitool. 
Can you see if you can reproduce the problem with the OpenIPMI library? 
That way you can do a message trace to see exactly what is killing
things.  Basically, compile the OpenIPMI library, then do:
  cmdlang/ipmish --dmsg -x "domain new t smi 0"

Hi,
 
I am using SUSE 10.0  Kernel 2.6.13-15-smp 64 bit.
with patches from Openipmi v36.1
Board is Intel SE7320SP2 with mBMC PC87431M
 
all looks fine and I'm able to read
 
e.g. chassis status, sdr repository etc.
 
if I try
 
     ipmitool -I open fru list
 
only the first 3 Values from FRU ID 0 are listed an then output stops
 
ipmitool can be terminated with ^C but Ipmi_smb Driver remains in an
endless loop
 
Output from DMESG: ipmi_smb: Error getting Flags -5 0, 11
                                ipmi_smb: Error getting Flags -5 0, 11
                                ........
 
any hints ?
 
Uli
