Here is the output of this system (X8DTL-3F)

Do you have an idea why there is this "privilege level insufficient"
message although I use priviledge level admin?


PS: I haven't used bmc-info so far. Seems also very interesting, so I tried it 
with two other systems:

1. Supermicro X8DT3-F - here I get more detailed information:
