Hello,
I'm using ipmipower to suspend and resume compute nodes in our clusters.
But it seems that the batch scheduler calls the command with
stdin redirected to /dev/null, which makes ipmipower exit
with a status of 1, and not suspending the node, instead
it logs a message:
ipmipower[28320]: Cbuf_write_from_fd(0): Bad file descriptor
I'm wondering if it is really is necessary for ipmipower
to read from stdin.
As a workaround I call ipmipower in a screen(1) session.
You can reproduce this behaviour from the command line
if you run for example:
ipmipower -h [address] -u [user] -p [pass] -n < /dev/null
I tested it under ubuntu/lucid and debian/squeeze
both with the shipped version 0.7.15 but
also with the latest version 1.0.6.
Regards,
Peter
