Open Issues

  • OCTL timeout feature introduced recently makes most sensor queries to the ORCM DB to fail Additional Note: This issue should be hard to reproduce, but due to the changes done around this bug, currently the query functionality in OCTL is non-functional

  • Killing a compute node orcmd then bringing it back up with dmidata enabled causes aggregator to seg fault

  • IPMI error output when no ipmi configuration is provided IPMI sensor now requires a IPMI config file with login credentials to BMC

  • CFGI configuration file version 1.0 doesn't recognize tags starting with blank spaces/tabs/enter key Workaround is to use CFGI v3.0 configuration files

  • The cluster root process 'orcmsched' accumulates memory after serving a failed query using OCTL
