sensord

[Darwin100]

Dear All,

I was reading from https://calomel.org/sensorsd_config.html and did see this reference to sensord.   

The article states "The first thing you need to do is see if the chipset on the motherboard you are using is supported by OpenBSD. Execute "sysctl hw.sensors" and you should see something similar to this output".

Does Free BSD have this sensord feature (I think they are saying sensord is an OpenBSD feature) and by inference does OpnSense have this feature?

TYIA.

Postscript, I found this reference https://wiki.freebsd.org/GSoC2007/cnst-sensors . Does this mean that FreeBSD does have this? Does this mean that OpnSense has this?

You can do a 'sysctl -a | grep hw' to list all the oid's, Try it and see what's reported back.

[Darwin100]

I sure did, and got this. That is a big list which I checked through and I cannot see anything useful. What do you think?

[marjohn56]

yeah...no need to post it. 


certainly does not contain what you are looking for.

[Darwin100]

Dear marjohn56,

Thank you.

The reason I was looking for sensord information was to get fan speed readings. The reason I wanted to get fan speed readings and possibly adjust is the CPU temperature readings on my firewall are around 80-85 degrees celcius as reported by the OpnSense widget.

When I go into BIOS and check the reading it is usually around 30 degrees celcius and when I run stress testing from Windows it is usually in the mid 40 degrees celcius range.

My post here https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=17158.0 is asking how accurate is the temperature reading using AMD temperature output in OpnSense.
