I got myself an ASRock E3C224 boards which I received yesterday.
For it, I got 1.35V low-voltage ECC RAM (certified Kingston RAM for that board).
ASRock manual and tech specs specify that it supports both 1.5 and 1.35V
Well, those idiots have set the lower non-critical value for the RAM voltage to 1.38V.
So when you use low-voltage RAM (1.35V), the logs get swamped with errors !
Using the freeipmi tools, I've changed the lower-NC value to 1.32V; but then it's the Vcore value that start to log events; even though it reports a constant 1.81V
So the logs gets filled up with:
The other annoying thing is that the remote control power doesn't work via the ipmi web page: power off server - orderly shutdown does nothing.
if you select to reboot the machine from freenas, it will actually shutdown and you must press the power button after that.
Pretty annoying...
