Re: [Freeipmi-users] Duplicate Sensors on a Dell PowerEdge R310
As you can see, sensor 36 and 48 are duplicated. IMHO that shouldn't happen. I guess it's something Dell specific. A number of Dell motherboards have this behavior. Dell lists multiple sensors by the same device name and expects the user software to construct a more usable sensor name using other information on the system. In FreeIPMI, I implement this as an option called --entity-sensor-names. It'd be interesting to see if this works for you. Is there anything I could do to help to get that fixed? Like offering additional information. It'd be interesting to see the debug output (--debug). Please limit it to the record ids 36 48 by specifying -r 36,48.

Please limit it to the record ids 36 48 by specifying -r 36,48. I attached the requested details. It looks like Dell just elected to name the sensors the same. Not sure why Dell would do that, but definitely not a bug on the FreeIPMI side. I think you'd have to ping Dell to ask them why they do this.
