This flag causes no ipmi data to be emitted and an error log is generated on each invocation: "awk: not an option: -nf".
I was unable to locate a "-n" flag in the mawk or gawk man pages, so I tested it by manually changing the script on a running Debian buster system. The issue was resolved and metrics were emitted.
