Re: Display processor temperature

[Pete Helgren <pete@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm gonna answer this myself....there IS a way to get exhaust fan 
temperatures but it ain't easy.  I found this relatively old YouTube 
video from an IBM'er but it doesn't deal with IBM i directly, it just 
addresses the Power processor and uses webm cli to access the values in 
(thru) the FSP.   I ran the webmcli command from a Linux instance that 
just happens to be a LPAR on my Power 9.  Works like a charm but takes a 
little work to get set up and tested.

Gonna add a Nagios script to check on it every 30 minutes or so and 
notify me if the temps get to 90 degrees or above (== A/C dead)

You'll find the YouTube video (from 2015) here:
