It seems this plugin crashes the whole GUI - mad If the board in your sig is what you are using, I don't believe you have ipmi. You can go to the command line and type ps aux | grep ipmi pe aux | grep php Then killall the processes.

Nothing from this plugin is running. Maybe try a different browser or crtrl-f5 in the browser. If you run diagnostics from the command line and post the diagnostics zip here I'll take a look.
April 25, 201610 yr I got a response from Supermicro. The response was a little underwhelming: Thank you for contacting Supermicro Computer's Technical Support ipmi-raw 00 30 45 01 0# In place of the #, you can use 0, 1 or 2. This will set the fan mode to 0 – Standard, 1 – Full, 2 – Optimal. Please let me know how it goes. I applied the warm reset, and then set it to optimal using the command above, and my fans lowered, and don't seem to be cycling. I'll keep an eye on this and see how it goes.

I'll incorporate this into the current fan control script I've been testing. And add a reset button.
April 25, 201610 yr Author Would like to gets working with SuperMirco Fans and any way to get the temp in the menu where it says MAIN, SHARES DOCKER etc? You can add temps and fans to the bottom of the webgui.

You can add temps and fans to the bottom of the webgui. I see the system and CPU temp now that you mentioned that. Would be nice to have it in the menu bar or a different color. Thanks
April 27, 201610 yr I am sorry to say that i have found an issue with this plugin. Unfortunately, a few weeks before i went into hospital i found that my webgui was "lagging". What I mean is that the structure of the page would load (i.e. tables and background images etc) but the data in the pages (i.e. drive data, smart data, docker images, icons etc) would not "appear" or the page finish loading for about 5-8 seconds. It wasn't happening on my Backup server but that was not a surprise as the Backup Server has very little in terms of additional features enabled. I have narrowed it down to this plugin. Uninstalled everything loads zipidy quick. Installed, the load of the page lags. I have installed - reconfigured - and uninstalled multiple times - still the same result. I am happy to help you debug this. I would like to install this again. See my Main Server setup in my Sig.

I am happy to help you debug this. I would like to install this again. See my Main Server setup in my Sig. Make sure your bmc is using the latest firmware. Usually different than bios and can be updated through the board's ipmi web interface. I assume you're using the latest version of the plugin. The ipmi.plg from the original post and not the previous ipmitool-plugin. I would delete the /boot/config/plugins/ipmi directory too. So no sensors are selected for display in the footer and no monitoring enabled. No errors in the system log? Are you using local or network based? If local, try enabling network with the ip of your bmc, username and password. If that works there might be a problem communicating with ipmi through the kernel driver. The plugin checks for modprobe ipmi_si success but if that works and there are communication errors, freeipmi doesn't have an adjustable timeout for local connections like ipmitool did. I think it's 20 sec. Try running the commands from the command prompt (ipmi-sensors, ipmi-sel, ipmi-fru) and see if they lag. Also if you install the plugin and it's lagging run "ps aux | grep ipmi" and "pd aux | grep php" from the command line and see if anything from the plugin is holding up the webgui/emttp. That's all I can think of right now. Let me know. Edit: And I hope everything's ok

In and out of hospital for the past month with various infections. Think twice before getting your wisdom teeth out is all I can say! Anyway .... I had missed the fact there was a new plugin. I was still using ipmi-tool. Easy fix, following your instructions. Removed the plugin, removed the dir from the flash, installed new plugin from CA. Reconfigured. Works perfectly. As an aside, nice upgrade efforts. It looks very professional. Excellent work!
April 27, 201610 yr Author I got mine out along time ago. I'll see if I can push a new version of the old plugin that notifies to uninstall it and install the new. Or try again to automatically uninstall the old and install the new plugin through the plugin system.
April 27, 201610 yr Is there anyway to have the System Temp display the IPMI sensored CPU temp instead of coretemp's temp? Since my UnRAID server is in a VM I can't use Coretemp because it doesn't read the system info properly but remote IPMI does.

Since my UnRAID server is in a VM I can't use Coretemp because it doesn't read the system info properly but remote IPMI does. You should be able to show any temp or fan that's available through ipmi in the footer of the webgui. You just have to set up ip, username and password to the ipmi interface then select the sensors you want shown. Make sure you're using the ipmi.plg from the original post.

Where in the WebGUI would I go to select the sensors I want shown? I have the IPMI tool setup and it's reading the sensors as shown in the IPMI Tool page but when I go to system temp there are no sensors listed as options.
April 27, 201610 yr Under the Settings/IPMI menu. Or click settings from the Tools/IPMI menu This is all I see under IPMI Tool
April 27, 201610 yr Author That's the old ipmi-plugin. Remove that and install the one from the first post.
April 27, 201610 yr That's the old ipmi-plugin. Remove that and install the one from the first post. Ahhh I see. Well thanks for that but unfortunately installing the new plugin has now locked up my UnRAID WebGUI and it's inaccessible. Going to have to reboot it looks like .
April 27, 201610 yr Ok so my system definitely doesn't like that plugin. Even after a reboot my WebGui is non responsive. Had to remove the plugin manually from the flash drive to get my system back online.
April 27, 201610 yr Author Ok so my system definitely doesn't like that plugin. Even after a reboot my WebGui is non responsive. How can I remove the plugin from the flash drive? I think there's just something I missed in checking for local ipmi. There's a long timeout for freeipmi. Go to the command line and try ps aux | grep ipmi and ps aux | grep php. Killall ipmi and killall php Then setup networking.
