Monitoring CPU temp on PE 1950 with IPMI

[Stephen Childs]

This has been asked before on the list but without resolution. How can I 
enable (or can I?) CPU temperature reporting via IPMI on a Poweredge 1950. 
Processor is "Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU           E5405  @ 2.00GHz".

I see the value for ambient temperature OK but everything else is disabled:


[root at wn001 mail]# /usr/bin/ipmitool  -I open sdr type temp
Temp             | 01h | ns  |  3.1 | Disabled
Temp             | 02h | ns  |  3.2 | Disabled
Temp             | 05h | ns  | 10.1 | Disabled
Temp             | 06h | ns  | 10.2 | Disabled
Ambient Temp     | 08h | ok  |  7.1 | 25 degrees C
CPU Temp Interf  | 76h | ns  |  7.1 | Disabled
