Bug Description

Brought up 18 new machines with charm installed. 3 out of the 18 servers failed to generate /var/lib/nagios/ipmi_sensors.out file and alerted nagios. Found that cron_ipmi_sensors.py would not continuously run due to there being an existing PID file at /var/run/nagios/check_ipmi_sensors.pid . However, process was not running. Removed PID file manually and worked again. Looks like if there's an exception in the try block in cron_ipmi_sensors.py, os.remove(CHECK_IPMI_PID) is not called.
