[Freeipmi-devel] Trouble w/ HP ProLiant and FreeIPMI (ipmi-sensors)

[Gregor Dschung]

Hi,

I'm trying to read sensor-data with ipmi-sensors from an HP ProLiant
DL140G3, but everytime it crashes.

Even if I read the data with ipmitool, I'll get warnings (I mailed this
issue already on the ipmitool mailing list).

I'm not good in debugging such issues, so I hope you can help me.

Even with the parameter -l ADMIN to force the privilege level to admin,
I'll getting the same output. With other servers (Supermicro) the tool
works fine.

Gregor
