IPMI fellows,
first, congrats for the FreeIPMI project. it's a cool piece of software ;-)
I'm currently having a look at IPMI to implement a PSU monitor driver for
the NUT project:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerOneiricInfraPower#NUT_PSU_.2BAC8_native_IPMI_driver
I've had a look at the various IPMI implementations out there, and FreeIPMI
seems the most suitable.
I've then had a look at FreeIPMI docs, code, svn, examples, contrib, and
there I got lost!
the code is very complex and hidden in many abstraction layers. And docs and
examples are not very helpful.
I also don't see pkg-config supports files (.pc).
Have I missed something? or isn't it developer friendly :(
I've got the attached output from ipmi-fru and ipmi-sensors
I'd like to do the exact same thing (ie identify and get all PSU information
and events), but looking at the code and docs, I still don't see the light.
Could you please provide me some help and guidance?
thanks,
Arnaud
