Integrated Management Log
On servers supporting the Integrated Management Display, 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 Integrated Management Log 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 Integrated Management Log requires Compaq operating system-dependent drivers. Refer to
the Compaq Support Software CD for instructions on installing the appropriate drivers.
Refer to the setup and installation guide that came with the server or to the
Integrated
Management Display User Guide
provided with the Integrated Management Display option kit.
Multiple Ways of Viewing the Log
You can view an event in the IML in several ways:
On the Integrated Management Display
From within Compaq Insight Manager
From within the Compaq Survey Utility
From within the IML Management Utility
Integrated Management Display
The Integrated Management Display is an LCD panel that presents information directly at the
server, assisting in diagnosing and servicing the server without a keyboard and monitor.
Compaq Insight Manager
Compaq Insight Manager
TM
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 Windows NT
and 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.
