Hey Won,

The reason for what you're seeing is described in the ipmimonitoring
manpage.

---
Interpretation rules have not been written for all sensors permutations
and types. Users may notice some sensors output in ipmi-sensors(8) do
not output in ipmimonitoring. If sensor interpretation rules are needed,
please contact the FreeIPMI maintainers.  
---

Looking at your sensors output below, there are three OEM sensors that I
can't interpret b/c I don't know the interpretation rules for them.  The
Power Unit Device Install and Fan transition interpretations were
recently added in 0.7.3.  So if you update to atleast 0.7.3, those
readings should show up in ipmimonitoring.

As for why Temperature Sensors aren't showing up, this corner case for
HP machines also appears to have been fixed in 0.7.3.
