The check plugin ipmi_sensors crashed with AttributeError ('NoneType' object has no attribute 'startswith') in case the IPMI datasource started to deliver incomplete data. This can happen for example due to bugs in IPMI firmwares related to SDR caching.

With this werk, the corresponding services go stale instead of a crash.
