Diagnostics and Troubleshooting 3-53 Integrated Management Log The Compaq Integrated Management Log (IML) replaces the Critical Error Log and Correctable Memory Logs. IML records system events and stores them in an easily viewable form. Each event is marked with a time-stamp with one-minute granularity. Events listed in the IML are categorized as one of four event severity levels: Status-indicates that the message is informational only. Repaired-indicates that corrective action has been taken. Caution-indicates a nonfatal error condition. Critical-indicates a component failure. The IML requires Compaq operating system-dependent drivers. Refer to the Support Software CD for instructions on installing the appropriate drivers. Multiple Ways of Viewing the IML You can view an event in the IML from within the: Compaq Insight Manager Compaq Survey Utility IML Management Utility Compaq Insight Manager Compaq Insight Manager is a comprehensive management tool used to monitor and control the operation of Compaq servers and clients. Compaq Insight Manager consists of two components: a Windows-based console application, and server- or client-based management data collection agents. Starting with Compaq Insight Manager 4.0, the agents for Microsoft Windows NT and Novell NetWare are also Web-enhanced; that is, these agents enable Web browser access and monitoring of management information. The management agents monitor over 1,000 management parameters. Key subsystems are instrumented to make health, configuration, and performance data available to agent software. Agents act upon data by initiating information, such as statistics on network interface or storage subsystem performance.

Events listed in the IML are categorized as one of four event severity levels:
Status
indicates that the message is informational only.
Repaired
indicates that corrective action has been taken.
Caution
indicates a nonfatal error condition.
Critical
indicates a component failure.
The IML requires Compaq operating system-dependent drivers. Refer to the Support
Software CD for instructions on installing the appropriate drivers.
Multiple Ways of Viewing the IML
You can view an event in the IML from within the:
