<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Hi, all,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">As the summit session <a href="https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/icehouse-summit-ceilometer-hardware-sensors">
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/icehouse-summit-ceilometer-hardware-sensors</a> said, ironic will expose IPMI data to ceilometer, but I have a couple questions here.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">IIUC, ironic did not involve too much about IPMI for now, only used ipmitool and pyghmi module.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Using IPMItool to execute command and parsing the output is easy to understand. But seems not a good way for me. The pyghmi only supports out-of-band(net-payload) now. So, I am wondering if we can extend the function
 of pyghmi to provide more interfaces?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Be specifically, I think pyghmi can provide in-band IPMI interface including IPMB or system interface etc. and allowed to get IPMI data in the OS.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
