[Spacewalk-list] getDmi in api returns empty

[A Robinson]

They're real Dell servers. Really odd thing is some are identical
hardware, -- in one case the difference being one is used as a
spacewalk proxy and one isn't. Since the information gets into
spacewalk (and is shown on the hardware tab) I was suspicious it's a
spacewalk problem.
