Hello,

I tried impitool, looks neat, but I can't figure out how to get disk
information out of it (if possible).

I tried a bunch of other commands, such as 'ipmitool -I open sdr type
"Drive Slot / Bay"', using -d 0 and 2 (I have ipmi0 and ipmi2 in /dev),
but they didn't seem to get me any disk information. Could it be that my
P400i doesn't hook into IPMI, or maybe I'm just not grokking ipmitool
enough yet. Still a neat utility.

Thanks,
Josh
