Figure 4: Event Viewer (Microsoft Windows Operating Systems) Linux Operating Systems: Using the IML The IML Viewer is a software tool created by HP and is available as a downloadable component pack from HP.COM. For systems running Linux, type the command hplog -v to view the IML log and check for system memory errors. From the Linux Command Prompt, type "hplog -v" and the entire IML will be displayed. Any detected system memory error will be logged, including any pre-failure warranty memory events on systems where applicable. Linux Operating Systems: Using /var/log/messages file The Linux system log (/var/log/messages) can be viewed using the cat, more, and less commands. The following types of messages may be logged here if a memory problem has occurred: : Oct 11 01:51:18 dhcp57-150 hpasmd[12039]: WARNING: hpasmd: Corrected Memory Error threshold exceeded (Slot 3, Memory Module 6) [root@dhcp57-150 ~]# hplog -v ID Severity Initial Time Update Time Count 0011 Information 22:50 09/16/2004 22:50 09/16/2004 0001 LOG: IML Cleared (Administrator) 0012 Repaired 00:32 09/21/2004 00:32 09/21/2004 0001 LOG: Memory Cartridge Not Redundant (Slot 5) 0033 Caution 04:02 10/06/2006 04:02 10/06/2006 0001 LOG: Corrected Memory Error threshold exceeded (Slot 3, Memory Module 6) 7
