Re: [Ipmitool-devel] Hm.. PS died (?) unnoticed

Hey guys,

I did some more testing and found that while ipmitool reports a status of "ok" whether both power supplies are working or not, it does report different values.  Here's what I mean.

Both power supplies are functioning:
localhost ~ # ipmitool sdr list | grep "PS Redundancy"
PS Redundancy    | 0x01              | ok

One PS is unplugged:
TeSt ~ # ipmitool sdr list | grep "PS Redundancy"
PS Redundancy    | 0x02              | ok

So, clearly 0x02 in this case means one of the supplies is bad.  I don't think it should report "ok".
