SEL Viewer
NOTE
The SEL Viewer task is available only on the local version of the SMU. This
task is not available when running the remote version of the SMU.
The SEL Viewer task allows you to view the System Event Log. The SEL Viewer task supports
the following:
• Viewing the BMC SEL
• Saving a log to a file
• Viewing a saved log file
• Viewing the SEL properties
• Clearing the BMC SEL
The SEL Viewer is started by clicking the SEL task in the task pane of the SMU. This task allows
you to view the current system events logged in the SEL. Upon selecting the task, the entire SEL is
loaded. During the load process, a dialog displays the progress. You cannot interrupt this process.
After the load is completed you will see a warning message displayed if the SEL is full.
If the SEL is empty, the following message is displayed:
The SEL is empty, no records to display
After any messages have been dismissed, you will see a page of events. This page contains column
headers and as many events that can fit on screen without using scroll bars. In order to prevent long
display strings from creating scrollbars in the SEL Viewer the list view restricts the length of the
following fields:
• Sensor Type and Number to 20 characters
• Event Description field to 30 characters
• Generator ID field to 15 characters
