Have you (or anyone else on the list) had any success using 'impitool' (from OpenIPMI; already in many Linux distros) to get at these events instead? It would be nice to have a vendor-agnostic means to get this data, though certainly getting it from OpenManage's 'omreport' tool works too. Also, if I understand correctly, IMPI may work even in cases where there is no iDRAC, since it talks directly to the Baseboard Management Controller (BMC). - Dave _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list Tech@lists.lopsa.org https://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
