The 'ipmitool sensor' command failed to report hardware temperatures. This occurred on hardware with unusual IPMB (Intelligent Platform Management Bus) addresses where ipmitool bridged messages to the BMC. The 'ipmitool' utility now recognizes all IPMB addresses properly and does not bridge requests to the BMC, and reports temperatures as expected.
