Report power redundancy failure on a ESS Data Server or ESS Protocol Node

Currently, the GUI neither mmhealth report a power redundancy failure if power cord is unplugged or power is lost at one of the PSUs. The GUI uses ipmitool rvitals as an internal report were PSU appears as ok but PSU fan rpm are reduced. The GUI shows PSU Hardware Panel as green while there is a loss in power redundancy. Telefonica data centers are managed remotely so there is no local admin to chek PSU lights from time to time. Thus, there is no easy way to detect such power loss even PSU is no broken.
