Chapter 1. Messages
When attempting to resolve issues with your server, the best practice is to begin with the event log of the
application that is managing the server.
• If you are managing the server from the Lenovo XClarity Administrator, begin with the Lenovo XClarity
Administrator event log.
• If you are using some other management application, begin with the Lenovo XClarity Controller event log.
The event log contains server hardware events that are recorded by the Lenovo XClarity Controller or by
UEFI. In addition, events can be generated when you perform diagnostic testing on hard drives or memory
through the Lenovo XClarity Provisioning Manager (although these events are not stored in the event log).
Use this section to view the events that can be generated by Lenovo XClarity Controller, UEFI, or the Lenovo
XClarity Provisioning Manager. For each event, a user action is available to help you understand what must
be done to resolve the issue.
Important:
• Lenovo XClarity Controller (XCC) supported version varies by product. All versions of Lenovo XClarity
Controller are referred to as Lenovo XClarity Controller and XCC in this document, unless specified
otherwise. To see the XCC version supported by your server, go to
https://pubs.lenovo.com/lxcc-overview/.
• Lenovo XClarity Provisioning Manager (LXPM) supported version varies by product. All versions of Lenovo
XClarity Provisioning Manager are referred to as Lenovo XClarity Provisioning Manager and LXPM in this
document, unless specified otherwise. To see the LXPM version supported by your server, go to
https://
pubs.lenovo.com/lxpm-overview/
