Re: [Freeipmi-users] Problems with getting settings in freeipmi_interpret_sensor.conf to work

[Al Chu]

Hi Frank,

The IPMI_OEM_Value fields are specifically for OEM sensors in the sense
that they are non-standard.  The drive slot sensor is standard, but the
combo of "drive slot" and "transition severity" event type isn't
supported.

I can add the support and give you a github branch to test out?
