Hi,
yes, it's ipmi-sel and ipmitool sel works. For the rest I'll check tomorrow and 
provide info.

I realize I said something stupid in the last post.  I was confusing "SDR" with 
"SEL" in my head.  I assume this log came specifically from ipmi-sel?

So I'm assuming when you say ipmitool works, its working with ipmitool sel 
commands?

 Hi,


I'm assuming this log is from ipmi-sensors, ipmi-sel, or ipmi-fru?  For some 
reason, the remote system isn't recognizing/responding to the "reserve SEL" 
request.  Lets try to get some debug info.

1) When you use ipmitool, are you using "-I lan" or "-I lanplus"?

I'm wondering if this is a ipmi 1.5 vs ipmi 2.0 issue, b/c you're using ipmi 
2.0 w/ FreeIPMI in this log.

2) Have you tried using "-D lan" with FreeIPMI?

To see if this is a ipmi 1.5 vs ipmi 2.0 issue with FreeIPMI.

3) Have you tried using bmc-info across the network?

To see if this is specific to the "Reserve SEL" command vs something IPMI 1.5 
vs IPMI 2.0 related.  Perhaps you can try w/ -D lan and -D lan20 to see if it 
works with both IPMI 1.5 and IPMI 2.0.

4) Could you try "ipmi-sel --info" across the network.  This command does not 
reserve the SEL, it's yet another data point.


Thanks,

Al

Hi,

Yes, I tried all the workaround options and it didn't help. Attaching
debug output here.

PS> ipmitool works well for remote connections, freeipmi works well
only with local IPMI device
