The lenovo_dense_power collector reads power from Lenovo Dense machines via ipmitool (ipmitool raw ...). This collector is known to only work on the following machines. Others are not supported, so use at your OWN risk:

System	Compatibility	Power measured
Lenovo ThinkSystem SD650 V2/V3	untested, but should work	node + riser1 + riser2
Lenovo ThinkSystem SD650-N V2/ SD650-I V3	untested, but should work	node + riser1 + riser2 + gpus
Lenovo ThinkSystem SD665-N V3	tested, known to work	node + riser1 + riser2 + gpus

To test if your system may be supported, you can run the following command at your own risk:

ipmitool raw 58 50 4 2 0 0 0

ipmitool typically require root to run. In order to run cc-metric-collector without root priviliges, you can enable use_sudo. Add a file like this in /etc/sudoers.d/ to allow cc-metric-collector to run the required commands:

# Do not log the following sudo commands from monitoring, since this causes a lot of log spam.
# However keep log_denied enabled, to detect failures
Defaults: monitoring !log_allowed, !pam_session

# Allow to use ipmitool for Lenovo power readings
monitoring ALL = (root) NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/ipmitool raw 58 50 4 2 0 0 0
