Solaris 11. I'm mostly interested in interrogating the sensors... with hope of bringing up collectd graphing fan speeds/temperatures/voltages and so on. ipmitool build from source works, but runs into the occasional timeout on some sensors. So I figured the ipmitool that comes with the OS would work better... not quite: # /usr/sbin/ipmitool -I bmc power status Error loading interface bmc The bmc driver is loaded, and /dev/bmc does exist. I don't see any attempt to access it via truss, though, so "loading" must mean something else. Has anyone played with this, without using the LAN interface? -- Brandon Hume - hume http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19690-01/821-0997/gjljl.html -> BOFH.Ca,http://WWW.BOFH.Ca/ Hi Brandon, I've seen some funkiness with ipmitool in Solaris 11, fixed in a later build. The integrating CRs say that you must use the -I bmc option but you seem to have a different issue. Could there be any conflict between your 2 versions? Did you completely uninstall the other version?
