In case anyone else has this issue.. Sven and I worked on this off-list,
and we identified this to be an error related to using the '-o' option
over SNMP, on servers equipped with iDRAC6 or iDRAC7 management
cards. The plugin check_openmanage has been fixed and a new release
(versjon 3.7.6) is available:

  http://folk.uio.no/trondham/software/check_openmanage.html#download

Notice for For RHEL and Fedora users: The new release has been submitted
as an update for Fedora and Fedora EPEL. It is currently in testing, and
can be updated with:

  yum --enablerepo=\*testing update nagios-plugins-openmanage
