On responses, the netfn is supposed to have the 1 set in the lowest bit. So if it sends netfn 0x2c, it should get back netfn 0x2d.
These appear to be for error responses, for instance the 2C/2D one is an ATCA probe (which your box won't support, since I don't think it's ATCA). So it appears to be returning incorrect responses for errors. You should report this to Sun, though if everything else is working correctly and it's not spewing out these errors it shouldn't affect normal operations very much. The last one is a little strange, it's doing a "Get SDR" request and that shouldn't fail. -corey > Regards > Mât > > --------------------------------------- > > # uname -a > Linux xxxxxxxxxxxxxx 2.6.24-standard #2 SMP Fri Jul 11 15:04:57 UTC 2008 > x86_64 GNU/Linux > > > # dmesg |grep -i IPMI > ipmi message handler version 39.1 > ipmi device interface > IPMI System Interface driver. > ipmi_si: Trying SMBIOS-specified kcs state machine at i/o address 0xca2, > slave address 0x20, irq 0 > ipmi: Found new BMC (man_id: 0x00002a, prod_id: 0x09ef, dev_id: 0x20) > IPMI kcs interface initialized > Copyright (C) 2004 MontaVista Software - IPMI Powerdown via sys_reboot. > IPMI message handler: BMC returned incorrect response, expected netfn 2d > cmd 1, got netfn 2c cmd 1 > IPMI poweroff: ATCA Detect mfg 0x2A prod 0x9EF > IPMI poweroff: Found a chassis style poweroff function > IPMI message handler: BMC returned incorrect response, expected netfn 3b > cmd 3c, got netfn 3a cmd 3c > IPMI message handler: BMC returned incorrect response, expected netfn b > cmd 23, got netfn 5 cmd 2d > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.
