Hi Rob, Argh! I was afraid some vendor would do something like this eventually. Having the same "style" sensors report states/events in non-consistent manners. I will have to think of a way to deal with this in the future. As for your question ...

There is a --groups and --sensors option for ipmimonitoring where you can specifically list which sensors/groups you want to see. You can configure the default list of groups into the freeipmi.conf file to make it default to a certain output if that makes things easier for you [1]. Unfortunately, these are "show me this stuff" options, not "exclude this stuff" options. So you'll have to list all the groups/sensors you want. Longer term (it's now on my TODO), it might be good if I create a "--exclude-groups" and "--exclude-sensors" options, that can eliminate sensors to list. Hope that answers your question. And thanks for e-mailing about this. Now I see a new good option I should put into ipmi-sensors and ipmimonitoring. Al [1] There's a typo in the freeipmi.conf file that'll be fixed soon. You separate groups by spaces, not commas.
