I should have apologized for not looking properly to start with, as the

That's _very_ slow, and still gives N/A.

The workaround doesn't make any difference.

I don't know how it's done on the system, and I'm not sure we have
useful technical docs, but the individual BMCs in the component boxes
all report the sensors in all four boxes as far as I can tell.

This is a bit of an annoyance for our monitoring, but not a big deal,
but I can look again in the new year if you would like to address it.
