Re: [Freeipmi-devel] Supermicro X7DBR-3 CPU Temperatur Sensors

[Werner Fischer]

Hey Al,

I have requested the following outputs from the customer for this
X7DBR-3 system with the add-on IPMI card (with chip from Peppercon):
        bmc-info
        ipmi-sensors -V
        ipmi-sensors --interpret-oem-data --output-sensor-state
        --flush-cache
        ipmi-sensors --interpret-oem-data --output-sensor-state --debug

Here are the first three outputs:

The output of
        ipmi-sensors --interpret-oem-data --output-sensor-state --debug
is quite large, so I have attached it in an archive (just in case the
output in there is helpful to you)

Thanks and best regards,
Werner

PS: regarding the X8DT3-LN4F system - I also requested the ipmi-sensors
output from there - to me it seems that the output there is ok and
interpreted correctly.
