Getting ipmi_sdr_cache_open: /root/.freeipmi/sdr-cache/sdr-cache-xxx.localhost: internal IPMI error

I have ipmi_exporter on multiple physical servers. Suddenly one of the servers has issue with ipmi exporter. Checking the ipmi_exporter status we have

error running ipmi-dcmi: exit status 1: ipmi_cmd_dcmi_get_power_reading: driver timeout
error running bmc-info: exit status 1: ipmi_cmd_get_device_id: driver timeout
error running ipmimonitoring: exit status 1: ipmi_sdr_cache_open: /root/.freeipmi/sdr-cache/sdr-cache-xxx.localhost: internal IPMI Error

Also running the ipmi-sensors command, we have error logs like below

sdcvmhost01:/etc/systemd/system # ipmi-sensors --debug
=====================================================
Get SDR Repository Info Request
=====================================================
[              20h] = cmd[ 8b]
=====================================================
Get SDR Repository Info Response
=====================================================
ipmi_sdr_cache_open: /root/.freeipmi/sdr-cache/sdr-cache-sdcvmhost01.localhost: internal IPMI error

Any suggestion/comments would be appreciated. Thank you.

Current ipmi_exporter version: ipmi_exporter-1.10.0 2 of 20 servers encountered this issue, other servers are running and exports metrics well.

Hi, have you solved it? The phenomenon I encountered is: manually executing ipmimonitoring has no problem, but it only reports errors in ipmi-exporter.
