[Freeipmi-users] ipmi_sdr_cache_create: internal IPMI error

[James Aaron Nix-Gomez]

Good morning,

 

I am having problems using ipmi-sensors on a SuperMicro X8DTH-if.  I
consistently get "ipmi_sdr_cache_create: internal IPMI error" messages.  I
have attached the debug information below.  We have other SuperMicro
X8DTH-if machines, with slightly different RAID hardware, where ipmi-sensors
works flawlessly.  I would appreciate any advice on how to troubleshoot this
issue.

 

Best regards,
