We might want to find a way to allow the charm a setting to ignore "internal IPMI error" responses related to ipmi_sdr_cache_open calls. This is not an issue determined through IPMI log/query, but an issue querying the IPMI interface of the BMC and can be noisy depending on hardware/firmware combinations for some environments.
On some Lenovo hardware, we are seeing temporary outages of 30minutes to 2 hours for IPMI connectivity from the host. The resultant service output is:
UNKNOWN: ipmi_sdr_ cache_open: /root/. freeipmi/ sdr-cache/ sdr-cache- ${hostname_ fqdn}: internal IPMI error
