I have a PE2950-III and I also have only one sensor, so I think this is
normal. It seems rather strange for such price-tag, go figure. In
comparison the 2850 has about 5 temperature probes.

And yes, omreport and ipmitool will report the exact same thing, since
they get the information from the same source (the BMC).
