Server Health Logs
The Server Health Logs contain information to help identify and correct any Server failures
and correlate hardware changes with Server failure. The Server Health Logs are stored in
nonvolatile RAM and consist of the Critical Error Log and the Revision History Table.
If errors occur, information about the errors is automatically stored in the Critical Error
Log.
Whenever boards or components (that support revision tracking) are updated to a new
revision, the Revision History Table will be updated.

hardware and software errors that typically cause the system to fail. This information helps
you quickly identify and correct the problem, minimizing downtime.
The log can be viewed through Inspect Utility, Diagnostics Utility, Compaq Insight
Manager or the optional Server Manager/R. The Diagnostics Utility either resolves the
