i installed it as follows:

[root at server ~]# yum install OpenIPMI-tools

if not installed automatically (as dependencies), install these packages, 
too:
[root at server ~]# rpm -qa|grep IPMI
OpenIPMI-1.4.14-19
OpenIPMI-tools-1.4.14-19
OpenIPMI-libs-1.4.14-19
[root at server ~]#

Did you use the "wget -q -O - 
http://linux.dell.com/repo/software/bootstrap.cgi | bash" command for FC6 
to get all the packages installed needed to run ipmitool?

I'm struggling to get it done (and connot really find any help to get it 
installed on f7), any suggestions?

Also, where to you get the ipmitool from?

No, we havent tried FC7 on out DELL PEs yet. 
We always use the 2nd latest Version because the latest are too "bloody" 
;) 

We downloaded the FC7 live CD for testing / debugging, but didn't run it 
on DELL PE yet...

Have you tried Fedora 7 yet? I've got a Fedora 7 PE860, and I just cannot 
get the ipmi goodies to install (using the bootstrap.cgi methid as 
suggested on the mailing lists and wiki) any suggestions?

On that client we are using Zabbix Agent 1.1.3 with Server 1.4.1. 
Other clients from V1.0.9 up to 1.4.1 are also monitored.

RE: Just wanted to say "hi!"

This is excellent news! I'm also using zabbix and I wanted to do this for 
a long time, but only started investigating on installing the Dell tools 
on Fedora now. 

What version of Zabbix are you using?

Hello List, 

i just found this list when i searched for some information about 
monitoring Hardware via ipmitool and Zabbix (thanks, Bart van Kuik, for 
sharing your experiences ("Reading out IPMI sensor values with Zabbix")! 
We use many Dell PE850 and 860 servers with Fedora Core 4, 5 and 6 and are 
quite pleased with them. 

I'm starting to monitor them as follows: 

on Client console: 
[root at cvs-server ~]# ipmitool sdr list full 
Temp             | 40 degrees C      | ok 
Planar Temp      | 26 degrees C      | ok 
CMOS Battery     | 3.08 Volts        | ok 
PROC Fan         | 3075 RPM          | ok 
DIMM Fan         | 3075 RPM          | ok 
PCI Fan          | 1350 RPM          | ok 

My UserParameters in zabbix agentd.conf: 
UserParameter=sensors.temp.cpu,sudo ipmitool sdr|grep "^Temp"|awk '{print 
$3}' 
UserParameter=sensors.temp.planar,sudo ipmitool sdr|grep "Planar Temp"|awk 
'{print $4}' 
UserParameter=sensors.fan.cpu,sudo ipmitool sdr|grep "PROC Fan"|awk 
'{print $4}' 
UserParameter=sensors.fan.ram,sudo ipmitool sdr|grep "DIMM Fan"|awk 
'{print $4}' 
UserParameter=sensors.fan.pci,sudo ipmitool sdr|grep "PCI Fan"|awk '{print 
$4}' 
UserParameter=ipmitool[*],sudo ipmitool sdr|grep $1|awk '{print $2}' 

and on client console again: 
zabbix_agentd -t sensors.temp.cpu 
zabbix_agentd -t sensors.temp.planar 
zabbix_agentd -t sensors.fan.cpu 
zabbix_agentd -t sensors.fan.ram 
zabbix_agentd -t sensors.fan.pci 
e.g.:        zabbix_agentd -t ipmitool['"Planar Temp"','$4'] 

Best regards,
