NAME
freeipmi_interpret_sel.conf - specify system event log (SEL) interpretation rules
DESCRIPTION
The /etc/freeipmi//freeipmi_interpret_sel.conf defines how IPMI system event log entries should be interpreted. IPMI system events specify
a number of states/thresholds when they are read. Based on those states/thresholds, libraries and tools such as libipmimonitoring(3) and
ipmi-sel(8) can report if an event is "good" or "bad" via a report of a NOMINAL, WARNING, or CRITICAL state. A different state can be
reported for an event depending on if it is asserted or deasserted.
Each of the states listed below are (hopefully) descriptive enough to describe the state conditions that may be set/unset for each sensor
or event type. For more detailed information on each of the individual states listed below, please see the IPMI Specification "Sensor and
Event Code Tables". Ipmi-sensors(8) can be used to determine the sensor types and the states/thresholds that exist on a system by out-
putting very verbose output and seeing what types of Assertion or Deassertion events are possible.
Each of the events below may may take 1 or 2 of the following states as input.
Nominal - Signal Nominal reading if event tripped
Warning - Signal Warning reading if event tripped
Critical - Signal Critical reading if event tripped
If only one state is listed, that state will be interpreted when the event is asserted or deasserted. If two states are listed, the first
state will be interpreted when an event is asserted, and the later will be interpreted when an event is deasserted.
Not all IPMI sensor types and event types are currently supported. If you would like more to be supported, please e-mail the FreeIPMI mail-
ing list.
The default values selected for individual events being tripped are based on best guesses and motherboards being analyzed. If you think
they should be changed, please e-mail the FreeIPMI mailing list to discuss what the defaults should be.
Most default interpretations can be determined quite easily and can meet the needs of most users. For example, a reading of "Perfor-
mance_Met" is normally better than "Performance_Lags". However, some sensors can be ambiguous and depend completely on the manufacturer.
For example, "State_Asserted" vs. "State_Deasserted" are completely at the interpretation of the vendor. Users are advised to adjust the
interpretations below as needed for their machines.

IPMI_OEM
The following configuration options can be used to configure OEM system event log events. Interpretations rules for a specific com-
bination of Manufacturer-ID, Product-ID, and Record-Type, are iterated through and the worst resulting sensor state is returned
(i.e. Warning < Nominal, Critical < Warning). If no match is found, no state is returned for the OEM event. For each of the config-
uration options below, <Manufacturer-ID> is the numeric IANA manufacturer ID for the manufacturer in question. The <Product-ID> is
one or more numeric IDs representing the manufacturer's product. The <Product-ID> can be listed as a single numeric number (e.g.
1234), a range of IDs separated by a dash (e.g. 12-20), or a list of specific product IDs separted by a plus (e.g. 12+19+22). Both
the Manufacturer-ID and Product-ID can be found using bmc-info(8). Multiple <Manufacturer-ID> and <Product-ID> pairs can be input
separated by commas.
IPMI_OEM_Sensor_System_Event_Record <Manufacturer-ID>:<Product-ID>,... Event-Reading-Type-Code Sensor-Type Event-Direction Event-
Data1 EventData2 EventData3 State
IPMI_OEM_System_Event_Record can be used to configure a state interpretation for a specific Manufacturer-ID, Product-ID,
Event-Reading-Type-Code, and Sensor-Type combination, and a specific Event-Direction, EventData1, EventData2, and EventData3.
The Event-Direction field must specify Assertion, Deassertion, or ANY. Each of the EventData fields must specify a hex byte
to match or the keyword ANY to match anything. The Event-Reading-Type-Code and Sensor-Type need not be OEM types. They may be
non-OEM types and used to provide interpretation rules for sensors that may be behaving outside the standard of the IPMI
specification.
IPMI_OEM_Timestamped_Record <Manufacturer-ID>:<Product-ID>,... Record-Type OEMDATA1 OEMDATA2 OEMDATA3 OEMDATA4 OEMDATA5 OEMDATA6
State
IPMI_OEM_Timestamped_Record can be used to configure an interpretation for a specific Manufacturer-ID, Product-ID,
Record-Type, and OEM data combination. The Record-Type must be a legal record type for OEM Timestamped Records (currently
0xC0-0xDF). Each of the OEMDATA fields must specify a hex byte to match or the keyword ANY to match anything.
IPMI_OEM_Non_Timestamped_Record <Manufacturer-ID>:<Product-ID>,... Record-Type OEMDATA1 OEMDATA2 OEMDATA3 OEMDATA4 OEMDATA5 OEMDATA6
OEMDATA7 OEMDATA8 OEMDATA9 OEMDATA10 OEMDATA11 OEMDATA12 OEMDATA13 State
IPMI_OEM_Non_Timestamped_Record can be used to configure an interpretation for a specific Manufacturer-ID, Product-ID,
Record-Type, and OEM data combination. The Record-Type must be a legal record type for OEM Non-Timestamped Records (currently
0xEO-0xFF). Each of the OEMDATA fields must specify a hex byte to match or the keyword ANY to match anything.
