We see the same on OpenPower machines. Since we don't use the ipmi_si interface, the openipmi init script fails, which removes modules which we do need.
root@g43L:~# grep -B2 IPMI_SI /etc/default/openipmi # Enable standard hardware interfaces (KCS, BT, SMIC) # You probably want this enabled.

Workaround is to set IPMI_SI="no" in /etc/default/openipmi. ** Tags added: taco-screen-team -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1318317 Title: openipmi startup script removes kernel modules To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openipmi/+bug/1318317/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
