Event logs
This information describes the types of event logs that are generated for the server.
Error codes and messages are displayed in the following types of event logs:
v POST event log: This log contains the most recent error codes and messages
that were generated during POST. You can view the contents of the POST event
log from the Setup utility (see “Starting the Setup utility” on page 142). For
more information about UEFI/POST error codes, see Appendix C, “UEFI/POST
error codes,” on page 473.
v System-event log: This log contains POST and system management interrupt
(SMI) events and all events that are generated by the baseboard management
controller that is embedded in the integrated management module (IMM). You
can view the contents of the system-event log through the Setup utility and
through the Dynamic System Analysis (DSA) program (as IPMI event log).
The system-event log is limited in size. When it is full, new entries will not
overwrite existing entries; therefore, you must periodically clear the
system-event log through the Setup utility. When you are troubleshooting an
error, you might have to save and then clear the system-event log to make the
most recent events available for analysis. For more information about the
system-event log, see Appendix D, “Integrated management module II (IMM2)
error messages,” on page 493.
Messages are listed on the left side of the screen, and details about the selected
message are displayed on the right side of the screen. To move from one entry
to the next, use the Up Arrow (↑) and Down Arrow (↓) keys.
Some IMM sensors cause assertion events to be logged when their setpoints are
reached. When a setpoint condition no longer exists, a corresponding deassertion
event is logged. However, not all events are assertion-type events.
v Integrated management module (IMM2) event log: This log contains a filtered
subset of all IMM, POST, and system management interrupt (SMI) events. You
can view the IMM event log through the IMM web interface. For more
information, see “Logging on to the IMM web interface” on page 153. You can
also view the IMM event log through the Dynamic System Analysis (DSA)
