RE: [Freeipmi-devel] Re: ibmx3650 reboots after ipmi-sel is unable toget SEL record

[Andy Cress]

Won,

This needs more information.
A raw dump of the SEL would help to determine whether the problem is in
the freeipmi interpretation or a problem on the server.
To get a raw dump of the SEL:
    ipmiutil sel -r  >sel.raw
    ipmitool sel writeraw sel.raw
    (not sure of how to do this with freeipmi)

If this record has event data 1 == 0x80, then "System Reconfigured" is a
good interpretation.
If it is interpreted correctly, then the SEL records surrounding this
event need to be reviewed. 
Also, if you got this event, then there may be some ipmi-related
processes running that caused it (output of ps -ef).  

Andy

I'm sorry, the below question may sound not suitable to the question
above. :)

I just want to revisit this thread as the log "System Reconfigured" is
recurring on IBM x3650. My questions is: Is the text string "System
Reconfigured" the result after interpretation by FreeIPMI? or FreeIPMI
simply reads the BMC-SEL, then display?

Thanks,

Won
