What were you trying to do that didn't work?

Start the ipmievd service.

What is the impact of this issue to you?

The ipmievd fails to start and no events are logged.

Please provide the package NVR for which the bug is seen:

ipmievd-1.8.19-9.el10.x86_64

How reproducible is this bug?:

Always?

Steps to reproduce

1.  Check /etc/sysconfig/ipmievd and make sure the pidfile= option is set (it is by default)
2.  Start the ipmievd service
3.  

Expected results

The ipmievd service is running.

Actual results

The service fails to start as /run/ipmievd.pid does not exist.

It seems like the pidfile=/run/ipmievd.pid is ignored. When ipmievd is started manually using:

ipmievd sel daemon pidfile=/run/TEST.pid

The pidfile created by ipmievd is still /run/ipmievd.pid0 (notice the 0 suffix) instead of the requested TEST.pid file. The parameter seems to be ignored.
