lm-sensors doesn't show fan speeds

.

Hi,

The fans are part of the FX chassis and not the sleds so they do not report the fan speed. The CMC interface of omconfig are used to monitor fans. 

Hi,
I configured the FX2S on its web page to send SNMP data to my Monitoring Management Server.
Go to "chassis overview" -> "Alerts" -> Add the IP address of my Monitoring Management Server", then click on send to do a test.
On the Monitoring management server, I have run the command "nc -lu 162", then I received the data (but in non-comprehensible format (binary)).

Now, I must find a solution to understand what I receive.

Is there a solution for this or another way ?

Thank you very much for your answers.

We do not have anything outside of our own management software. You may be able to use the mib files with another management program. http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/Drivers/DriversDetails?driverId=YKG8D&fileId=3653612153&osCode=W12R2&productCode=poweredge-fc630&languageCode=en&categoryId=SM

Hello.

The solution for this problem is that the FC430 doen't have FANs. They are located on the chassis (FX2).

Thanks

# Try next command sequence in Linux ( Red-Hat, CentOS ) as root

# First, let's load supporting kernel libraries that can talk with sensors modules:

modprobe ipmi_si

modprobe ipmi_devintf

# Second, let's use ipmitool command locally:

ipmitool sdr list full

 # Should return something like this:

I don't seem to have the ipmi_si module on my CentOS 7 system. Can you tell me where you got it?

@ecf_at_rapid ,

# yum install OpenIPMI ipmitool

This should install all the necessary modules & tools.

This worked for me on Alma Linux 9.1 on Dell T640
