[Freeipmi-devel] Re: Fw: ipmi-sensors and ipmimonitoring mismatch

[Al Chu11]

Hey Won,

This output looks familiar, I think I have worked on this before with
another FreeIPMI user ...

=====================================================
Reserve SEL Request
=====================================================
[              42h] = cmd[ 8b]
=====================================================
Reserve SEL Response
=====================================================
[              42h] = cmd[ 8b]
[              C1h] = comp_code[ 8b]
ipmi_cmd_reserve_sel: bad completion code: command invalid/not supported

So this is a bug on HP's part, but shouldn't really be a problem b/c I
have code to work around it (you can tell b/c there is more
output :-) ...

=====================================================
Get SEL Entry Request
=====================================================
[              43h] = cmd[ 8b]
[               0h] = reservation_id[16b]
[               0h] = record_id[16b]
[               0h] = offset_into_record[ 8b]
[              FFh] = bytes_to_read[ 8b]
=====================================================
Get SEL Entry Response
=====================================================
[              43h] = cmd[ 8b]
[              CBh] = comp_code[ 8b]

CBh = sensor not present

Something seems amiss in the HP IPMI.  Do you have any HP software that
works?  Maybe it only works for HP software and none of the open source
software out there.
