Re: [Freeipmi-devel] ipmi_monitoring_sensor_readings_by_record

I am using 1.5.5 version.

Below are the packet details along with errors. Except for the 3rd scenario all other errors are very frequent

Failed right away (first sdr request in the trace)

Hi,

What version of FreeIPMI are you using? The line numbers don't quite line up with the master branch.

Also, could you set IPMI_MONITORING_FLAGS_DEBUG_IPMI_PACKETS and show the IPMI packet that occurs right before the error line?

Thanks,

Al

Hi Albert,

Thanks for quick response. I have set the flags for debugging and found it failing at one of the three instances below in different runs.

1) (ipmi_monitoring_sensor_reading.c, _get_sensor_reading, 356): ipmi_sensor_read: internal system error(ipmi_monitoring.c, _ipmi_monitoring_sensor_readings_by_record_id, 1449): ipmi_sdr_cache_iterate: error returned in callback ipmi_monitoring_sensor_readings_by_record_id: internal error

The "internal error" indicates some logical error that the library
doesn't know how to handle. Given its coming from
ipmi_monitoring_sensor_readings_by_record_id and it occurs when you run
the program back to back, I would bet there is some internal IPMI issue
on your system. Perhaps its a new error code or something like that
that I do not handle gracefully correctly.

To try and debug, could you set the flag "IPMI_MONITORING_FLAGS_DEBUG |
IPMI_MONITORING_FLAGS_DEBUG_IPMI_PACKETS" when calling
ipmimonitoring_init() in the example code. Hopefully that'll be enough
to figure out the issue.
