Result: Better.. We can see all of the boards in the ATCA chassis now,
but I don't really know what the Asis ACTA Shelf manager is in the
output of the CVS ROOT case. I'm a bit confused by that...

Also note that if I specify _any_ non-zero value with -m in the CVS
ROOT case above, then I get the same output as I get with Jim's patch.
I'm not really sure what is up with that. It looks like if I specify
a non-zero value with -m, then the PICMG GetDeviceLocator doesn't get
run in the CVS ROOT case.

2) Getting FRU information from a specific blade in ATCA chassis.
Here I try and get the FRU information from the APR directly with the
-t 0x82 flag:

a)CVS ROOT:

Results: So the patch seems to fix the problem where we have to
prevent the PICMG GetDeviceLocator from running by specifying a
non-zero -m flag. That seems good to me.


The above results seem to be consistent for all the ipmitool fru subcommands.

thats all for tonight.. More tomorrow.

thanks
