So last night at midnight I hear this crazy weird siren sound coming from the basement. Long story short: scrub kicks off on Freenas vm and ramps up CPU? HBA? ??? temps enough to make the motherboard set off the klaxon.
Here's the problem (and thus the question): I'm running esxi on a supermicro x10sat -- no ipmi. Thus esxi can't (won't?) tell me about the system temps even though they're readily available via bios. So I have no way of knowing what the alarm was actually complaining about.
Freebsd has been able to read temps via coretemp for over a decade so there must be a way to do the same thing on esxi w/o ipmi. Is there a generic or Intel chipset cim provider that can read basic temp info on non ipmi boards?
