blac (oldblac) is a desktop machine with no IPMI hardware. The openipmi systemd service is pulled in as a dependency and consistently fails because there is no IPMI BMC to talk to. Disable the service explicitly to stop the recurring alert. Alert: SystemdServiceFailed (critical) fingerprint: 7fced68000ca0711 instance: oldblac

openipmisystemd service is pulled in as a dependency of some installed package and consistently fails every time it starts — there's no IPMI BMC to talk to.Fix
