Subject: [Ironic] A question about getting IPMI data

Hi, all,
As the summit session 
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/icehouse-summit-ceilometer-hardware-sensors 
said, ironic will expose IPMI data to ceilometer, but I have a couple questions 
here.

1.       What kind of IPMI data will be collected? I assume that power, 
temperature or other sensor data is needed, right?



2.       How do we get all these data?

IIUC, ironic did not involve too much about IPMI for now, only used ipmitool 
and pyghmi module.
Using IPMItool to execute command and parsing the output is easy to understand. 
But seems not a good way for me. The pyghmi only supports 
out-of-band(net-payload) now. So, I am wondering if we can extend the function 
of pyghmi to provide more interfaces?
Be specifically, I think pyghmi can provide in-band IPMI interface including 
IPMB or system interface etc. and allowed to get IPMI data in the OS.

Is all this make sense to you?

Thanks for your response


Best Regards,
