RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
delloem command relies on specific hw and there is no way how to find if I am using such a hw. Then its possible to use 50% commands successfully from delloem and the rest of commands return error like 'Unknown (0x80)'
I would like to see something like:
'ipmitool delloem checkhw' which returns true or false
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ipmitool-1.8.11-7.el6.x86_64
OpenIPMI-2.0.16-12.el6.x86_64
How reproducible:
find a hw which don't fully support delloem, like dell-per805
Steps to Reproduce:
[root@dell-per805-01 ~]# /etc/init.d/ipmi restart
Stopping all ipmi drivers: may be in use[FAILED]
Starting ipmi drivers: [ OK ]
[root@dell-per805-01 ~]# /etc/init.d/ipmievd restart
Shutting down ipmievd:[ OK ]
Starting ipmievd:[ OK ]
# try delloem commands
some of them works:
# ipmitool delloem powermonitor

and some of them not:
[root@dell-per805-01 ~]# ipmitool delloem powermonitor getpowerbudget
Error getting power cap: Unknown (0x80)
[root@dell-per805-01 ~]# ipmitool delloem powermonitor disablepowercap
Error getting powercap statusr: Invalid command
Can not set powercap on this system
Actual results:
some of the delloem does not work
Expected results:
how to be sure that hw is fully supported
add support for another hw, like dell-per805
I would like to see something like:
'ipmitool delloem checkhw' which returns true or false
Additional info:
I am afraid we don`t have a command that can give this information.
The commands such as "ipmitool delloem powermonitor getpowerbudget" are relatively alien for 10G Rack servers. The BMC on 11G server will support all the commands.
