Subject: Re: [Freeipmi-devel] ipmimonitoring-sensors.c discretereading
workaround
To: Albert Chu <ch...@llnl.gov>
Hey Al,
Thanks for the fast patch,
We got at least a partial victory:
After setting discrete_reading to 1, I got two of the PSU sensors working:
8, Power Supply 1, 8, Power Supply, Nominal, 45.00, W, 6Fh, 1h, 'Presence
detected'
9, Power Supply 2, 9, Power Supply, Nominal, 40.00, W, 6Fh, 1h, 'Presence
detected'
Unfortunately sensor 5 (total power meter) doesn't show up.
After setting record_ids[] to {5, 0} and record_ids_length = 1, I only get
the headers:
Record ID, Sensor Name, Sensor Number, Sensor Type, Sensor State, Sensor
Reading, Sensor Units, Sensor Event/Reading Type Code, Sensor Event
Bitmask, Sensor Event String
Before your patch it looked like this:
Record ID, Sensor Name, Sensor Number, Sensor Type, Sensor State, Sensor
Reading, Sensor Units, Sensor Event/Reading Type Code, Sensor Event
Bitmask, Sensor Event String
5, Power Meter, 5, Current, N/A, N/A, N/A, 9h, 2h, 'Device Enabled'.
With IPM_MONITORING_FLAGS_DEBUG I did not get any more logs, so I did it
with IPMI_MONITORING_FLAGS_DEBUG_IPMI_PACKETS.
I've pasted the logs for that to my privatebin again:
