Hello,

*$ipmimonitoring -W discretereading* gives me the Output of the Power Meter
like this "5  | Power Meter     | Current      | N/A      | 168.00     |
W     | 'Device Enabled'" here you can clearly see the wattage. In this
case 168W.
If I just use *$ipmimonitoring* I get "5  | Power Meter     | Current
| N/A      | N/A        | N/A   | 'Device Enabled'". No wattage at all.

If I compile ipmimonitoring-sensors.c and run it, I don't get the sensor 5
(Power Meter) at all.

Also there are 2 other sensors (8,9), as seen below, who are giving also
wattage readings with $ipmimonitoring -W discretereading
8  | Power Supply 1  | Power Supply | Nominal  | 45.00      | W     |
'Presence detected'
9  | Power Supply 2  | Power Supply | Nominal  | 35.00      | W     |
'Presence detected'

but with ipmimonitoring-sensors I only get
8, Power Supply 1, 8, Power Supply, Nominal, N/A, N/A, 6Fh, 1h, 'Presence
detected'
9, Power Supply 2, 9, Power Supply, Nominal, N/A, N/A, 6Fh, 1h, 'Presence
detected'
(like with $ipmimonitoring without the discretereading workaround flag)
I've tried to set *int discrete_reading *to 1, but I got the same results.
Unfortunately I couldn't find any documentation about setting the
workaround in the ipmimonitoring-sensors.c library, so thats why I'm asking
here.

showing the wattages).

Since this neither works with
http://www.gnu.org/software/freeipmi/ipmimonitoring-sensors.c, I thought I
would ask here.
