I would like to monitoring the consumption of energy of my notebook. I like of IPMI and installed. After install, I loaded all modules and run the ipmitool command and show the follow error:
ipmitool -I open chassis power status
Could not open device at /dev/ipmi0 or /dev/ipmi/0 or /dev/ipmidev/0: No such file or directory
Unable to get Chassis Power Status**
The output dmesg is:
ipmi message handler version 39.2
ipmi device interface
IPMI System Interface driver.
ipmi_si: probing via hardcoded address
ipmi_si: Adding hardcoded-specified kcs state machine<
ipmi_si: Trying hardcoded-specified kcs state machine at i/o address 0xca2, slave address 0x0, irq 0
ipmi_si: Interface detection failed
Anybody can help me? Thank you!!
IPMItool can only check server power which equipped with one physical controller(BMC) which have kcs channel with i/o address 0xa2 to communicate between PCH and BMC. This is what dmesg indicated. Notebook should not be able to make it....
