Hi Florian,
Not sure of your familiar w/ FreeIPMI, just to double check, you
attempted to flush, and then re-run ipmi-sensors again?
I've pinged the other FreeIPMI develoeprs to throw in some of their
ideas. But some of mine:
1)
Could you try running bmc-info? Since that doesn't require an SDR
cache, it will remove at least 1 variable from this trouble-shooting.
2)
It looks like the default addresses were utilized on the 2600, so maybe
it's worth a shot trying them on the 2800/2900:
ipmi-sensors --no-probing -D KCS --driver-address=0xCA2 --register-
spacing 1
and for kicks try register spacing of 4 too
ipmi-sensors --no-probing -D KCS --driver-address=0xCA2 --register-
spacing 4
in fact it may be worth trying a few combinations, including 0xCA8 in
there too b/c that is the probed driver address.
3)
I re-wrote the SDR cache debugging/stableness code in 0.4.X. It
includes some extra debugging. It may be worthwhile trying to install a
newer version to get extra info.

Hi Al
thanks for your answer.
ipmi-locate looks a bit different on my poweredge 2600:

I checked it also on a poweredge 2850 and got the same error.
The poweredge 2600 seems to be the only working system.
The differences between 2850 and 2950:

I tried the flush cache option but it didn't solve it.

Hi Florian,
Out of my curiosity, did ipmi-locate return the same info on the dell
poweredge 2600??
I'm not 100% on what your bug could be right now, but could you also try
to flush the SDR cache using the -f option. There was a similar fread()
error message on the FreeIPMI 0.4.X trunk that I fixed. I suppose it's
possible it existed in 0.3.X too.

Hello
i'm testing freeipmi 0.3.3 on a freebsd 6.2 server (dell poweredge 2950).
Freeipmi was installed from ports and der is no newer version there at
the moment.
ipmi-locate gives me the following:

--------------------------<snap>------------------------------
I tried the same on an older Dell Poweredge 2600 and there it works
without a problem.
Could anybody give me a hint what it could be?

Florian
