Ipmi command "ipmitool sel list " doesn't show sel log on D50DNP system.

Ipmi command "ipmitool sel list " doesn't show sel log on D50DNP system.

Fail symptom :
No message print after perform "ipmi sel list " , only show "sel has no entries"


Root cuase : OpenBMC does not have the static SDR design like legacy BMC, so when adding a SEL entry via a raw command, the BMC will attempt to map it into a readable

           string and store it in the ipmi_sel. When the user execute to get SEL command, the readable string is then mapped back into raw data.

                       Additionally, OpenBMC IPMI SEL will only record threshold sensor events in the IPMI SEL, apart from events manually added through commands

    About Redfish log , please see Redfish.txt in debug log zip file.
  

Ipmi sel list command will only show the threadhold event which redfish recorded.
