[CentOS] ipmitool and CentOS 7

[Wes James]

In 6.7 in virtualbox, when I do uname -a I see:

Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.32-642.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue May 10
17:27:01 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Then I run your command:

echo $(uname -n | sed -e 's/\..*//' )

and see:

localhost

On 7.2 on virutalbox I see this:

$ uname -a
Linux c7-vm 3.10.0-327.18.2.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu May 12 11:03:55 UTC 2016
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

$ echo $(uname -n | sed -e 's/\..*//' )
c7-vm

You have a typo in your script actual typed text??
