For information on the SEL and configuring system management settings, see the OpenManage Server Administrator documentation at support.dell.com/manuals.

Viewing Status Messages If a system error occurs, the LCD screen will turn amber. Press the Select button to view the list of errors or status messages. Press the left and right buttons to highlight an error number, and press Select to view the error.

For other faults, you must take action to remove the message from the display: • Clear the SEL-You can perform this task remotely, but you will lose the event history for the system. • Power cycle-Turn off the system and disconnect it from the electrical outlet; wait approximately ten seconds, reconnect the power cable, and restart the system.
