These are the same numbers I was seeing from within the ILOM GUI and there is no way they are accurate. Two of the temp ones are showing 22C and 25C but my lm-sensors on that machine is showing values in the high 30s, which has to be the correct value judging by holding your hand next to the system. I've got the ILOMs updated to the latest and greatest but I've not been able to update the BIOS on these machines and they are not under support anymore so I can't bug Oracle about it :-( -- “Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV” - Michael Pollan, author of "In Defense of Food"
