Category: IPMI Direct plugin Group: 3.3.x Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Andy Cress (arcress) Assigned to: Lars Wetzel (larswetzel) Summary: BIOS sensors and events are not handled Initial Comment: On all Intel motherboards, there are various BIOS events logged by the BMC into the SEL. Some are informational, such as System Events that are logged normally during boot, but others are for various BIOS detected faults related to CPU, Memory, etc. The ipmidirect plugin artificially restricts the HandleEvents from passing up any BIOS-detected events. It returns the message "remove event: system software event" The BIOS fault events need to be handled. Example Intel motherboards: S5520UR, S2600CO, S2400EP, S5000PAL, etc. Sample command to simulate a BIOS Memory ECC error event for testing: ipmiutil cmd 00 20 10 02 33 03 0c 02 6f a0 00 21 In investigating this, I also see that SDRs that are owned by BIOS are not included in the RDRs. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Anton Pak (avpak) Date: 2012-08-29 12:09 Message: IPMI Direct via system interface (SMI)? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Andy Cress (arcress) Date: 2012-08-29 12:08 Message: This is not ATCA, no shelf manager. It is an Intel server with a baseboard BMC. Yes the IPMI sensors are fine, and the IPMI events are fine, just a problem with the openhpi events. The libipmi plugin does at least include the BIOS events at HPI events, but mis-interprets them. The libipmidirect plugin artificially throws these events away. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Lars Wetzel (larswetzel) Date: 2012-08-29 11:53 Message: Hi Andy, first of all: I don't have any IPMI hardware to debug it. Which means I have to guess and ask a little bit. Are we talking about an ATCA system? Can you check if the sensors have a valid IPMI SDR Entry? Does the ShelfManger recognize these sensors?
