Werk #6458: IPMI Management board: Use USER privilege level for monitoring

Component Core & setup
Title IPMI Management board: Use USER privilege level for monitoring
Date Aug 28, 2018
Checkmk Edition Checkmk Raw (CRE)
Checkmk Version 1.5.0p3 1.6.0b1
Level Trivial Change
Class Bug Fix
Compatibility Compatible - no manual interaction needed

Previous versions used the ADMIN privilege level for monitoring via IPMI which is way too much for this read-only access which is needed by Check_MK for monitoring.

When you tried to use a non ADMIN privileged user before, an error like this occured:

ERROR: Requested privilege level is not allowed over this channel while requesting privelege level 3 for [user]

You can now use less privileged users for monitoring.
