Hi Gavin
I started out with Administrator level access too, and cut it back to User with some trial and error after I got it working at that level.
Here's some screenshots of what works for me... Dell R710 and R720 servers with recent iDRAC software - 1.96 on the one I just looked at.
ipmitool needs to specifically told to use "User" level privileges, it will default to "Administrator".

Hi Colin,
OK. What user level? Only Administrator seems to work (there's user and operator).
Thanks. _______________________________________________ observium mailing list observium@observium.org http://postman.memetic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/observium
