Description Karel Volný 2009-07-28 15:14:25 UTC
Description of problem:
Trying to test kg_key usage, I came across the following failure.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
OpenIPMI-2.0.16-5.el5

How reproducible:
random

Steps to Reproduce:
.qa.[root@x86-64-5s-m1 tps]# ipmitool -k PASSWORD -I lanplus -H dell-pe1950-01-drac.rhts.englab.brq.redhat.com -U root -P calvin sensor list
  
Actual results:
ipmitool: lanplus.c:2153: ipmi_lanplus_send_payload: Assertion `session->v2_data.session_state == LANPLUS_STATE_PRESESSION' failed.

Expected results:
(sensors listed)

Additional info:
Not sure how to reproduce. On the machine that experienced the error, sensor list was run and interrupted via Ctrl+C, then on another machine sensor list was run against the same host, and then (while still running) the list was re-run on the first machine.

Comment 1 Jan Safranek 2009-08-24 13:40:00 UTC
I can't explain the error nor reproduce it, even with the same host. The code looks complex and I was not able to find code path which leads to the assertion.

Let me know if you are able to reproduce it.
