Hi Al,
With IBM x3650, I noticed that ipmi-sel is unable to get the SEL record.
# ipmi-sel --version
IPMI Sensors [ipmi-sensors-0.6.10]
# ipmi-sel > ibm3650-dsc2075-sel.txt
ipmi_cmd_get_sel_entry: BMC busy
ipmi-sel: unable to get SEL record
After the above, the box automatically rebooted. Is this normal?
I then cleared the SEL records, thinking that the reboot might have been
triggered due to a full SEL.
# ipmi-sel -c
# reboot
# ipmi-sel
1:OEM defined = 00 00 00 00 00 E3 25 86 80 00 00 FF 00
# ipmi-sel
1:OEM defined = 00 00 00 00 00 E3 25 86 80 00 00 FF 00
# reboot
# ipmi-sel
1:OEM defined = 00 00 00 00 00 E3 25 86 80 00 00 FF 00
2:OEM defined = 00 00 00 00 00 E3 25 86 80 00 00 FF 00
3:OEM defined = 02 00 00 FF 00 00 00 00 20 00 00 00 00
Then retried the previous command that caused an error.
# ipmi-sel > ibm3650-dsc2075-sel.txt
# cat ibm3650-dsc2075-sel.txt
1:OEM defined = 00 00 00 00 00 E3 25 86 80 00 00 FF 00
2:OEM defined = 00 00 00 00 00 E3 25 86 80 00 00 FF 00
3:OEM defined = 02 00 00 FF 00 00 00 00 20 00 00 00 00
Then the problem didn't occur anymore.
Besides, what is the meaning of this OEM defined? I can't see any log that is
more specific, or something like
220:19-Sep-2008 14:24:56:Power Unit Sys pwr monitor:Power Off/Power Down
221:19-Sep-2008 14:25:16:Power Unit Sys pwr monitor:Power Off/Power Down
I've attached here the ipmi-sel debug output.
Then one side question, I want to ask the possible reasons of the ff log
obtained prior to clearing. I didn't change any in the system.
I just noticed that the system halted serving and went back after 4-5 minutes,
w/out any other records in SEL that says the box hang and rebooted.
54:23-Jan-2009 11:28:55:System Event #0:System Reconfigured
Thanks,
Won
