Consolidating all the past comments on the MOF structure, I put together a basic implementation of lmi-bmc provider (with just enumeration enabled)at https://github.com/praveen-pk/lmi-bmc. Please give this a spin and let me know your comments/suggestions.
This provider works fine on Dell System with IPMI service running. There is much work left while handling the error cases, so the code is a bit unstable.
Hello,
sorry for late response, I finally compiled the provider on one of our Dell PE 1850 and it seems to be on the right track.
As you pointed out, there are very little error cases and robustness. For example, our PE 1850 reports Vendor in BIOS as "Dell Computer Corporation" and your is_vendor_like_dell() check fails.
