System event/error log messages

A system event/error log is generated only if a Remote Supervisor Adapter II

SlimLine is installed. The system event/error log can contain messages of three

types:

Information Information messages do not require action; they record significant

system-level events, such as when the server is started.

Warning Warning messages do not require immediate action; they indicate

possible problems, such as when the recommended maximum

ambient temperature is exceeded.

Error Error messages might require action; they indicate system errors,

such as when a fan is not detected.

Each message contains date and time information, and it indicates the source of

the message (POST/BIOS or the service processor).

Note: The BMC system event log, which you can view through the

Configuration/Setup Utility program, also contains many information, warning, and

error messages.

In the following example, the system event/error log message indicates that the

server was turned on at the recorded time.
