Problem with check_ipmi_sensor in Shinken #1

Open mohierf opened 8 years ago

Hi @claneys

I am trying to use your ipmi pack on my configuration but I have some unexpected results

The shinken poller launchs this command (changed IP address ...): 

/var/lib/shinken/libexec/check_ipmi_sensor -H 127.0.0.1 -f /var/lib/shinken/libexec/ipmi.conf --nosel

And the result is:

ipmi_ctx_open_outofband_2_0: device not open

-> Execution of /usr/sbin/ipmi-sensors failed with return code 1.
-> /usr/sbin/ipmi-sensors was executed with the following parameters:
   /usr/sbin/ipmi-sensors -h 10.106.185.5 --config-file /var/lib/shinken/libexec/ipmi.conf --quiet-cache --sdr-cache-recreate --interpret-oem-data --output-sensor-state --ignore-not-available-sensors --driver-type=LAN_2_0

But when I launch the same command from the command line, I get this result: 

root@shinken:/var/log/shinken# /var/lib/shinken/libexec/check_ipmi_sensor -H 127.0.0.1 -f /var/lib/shinken/libexec/ipmi.conf --nosel

How do you explain this? 

*Note that my shinken check is in UNKNOWN state ...*

Maybe a problem with permissions as when you executed it from cli you are logged as root.

My guess is a problem to read your config file containing credentials or something with ipmi binary.

Try to execute the raw command : 

/usr/sbin/ipmi-sensors -h 10.106.185.5 --config-file /var/lib/shinken/libexec/ipmi.conf --quiet-cache --sdr-cache-recreate --interpret-oem-data --output-sensor-state --ignore-not-available-sensors --driver-type=LAN_2_0

Sorry, for the delay about this :/

Today i had the same issue. It also occurs when running as user shinken. Setuid root helped in my case. For that you need to run chmod u+s on ipmi-sel and ipmi-sensors in /usr/sbin
