I've searched and googled around, but just in case I am missing something obvious:  Are there zenoss hooks for monitoring via ipmi?  (power status, environmentals, etc).  There is a lot of info that could be discovered this way without adding jitter to the OS that is running on the system at the time.

If not it might make a good zenpack.  Now if I only had another few hours in the day....

Anyway, thought I would bring this up here because a lot of HPC tools hook in to IPMI.
