• Locator • Power VFP shows forward progress during boot by indicating how many events have been received since the boot started and whether there have been any errors (events with alert level 3 or greater) since the last boot. To clear the yellow attention indicator on the front of the system, use the SL command and access the System Event Log (SEL). Each user viewing VFP is in private session mode. See also: LOC (locator LED) and, SL (show logs). CM (Command Mode): Enter command mode CM switches the console terminal from the MP Main Menu to mirrored command interface mode. The Command menu provides you with a set of standard command-line interface commands that help monitor and manage the server. To display the list of MP command mode commands: 1. From the MP Main Menu, enter CM. 2. Enter HE LI at the CM: hpiLO-> prompt. If a command is in progress, a system status message appears. To return to the MP Main Menu, press Ctrl-B. CL Display console history Command access level: Remote Console access for viewing the log. Configure MP Settings access for clearing the log. The CL command displays up to 256KB of logged console data (or about 250 pages of output) sent from the system to the console path and stored for later analysis. Console data is stored in a buffer in nonvolatile memory. By default, data is displayed from the beginning of the buffer to the end of the buffer. You can control the starting point from which the data displays and navigate through the data. An image of the console history appears when you enter the CL command. Console output continues to be logged while this buffer is read, and nothing is lost in the meantime. The CL command does not support command line usage or scripting. See Also: SL, VT SL (Show Logs): Display the status logs SL displays the contents of the status logs, System Event Log (SEL), Forward Progress Log (FPL), and iLO Log. You can also run the status in live mode presenting each event as it is received. NOTE: After entering the SL command, any subcommand you enter (such as SE log selection, SL menu options) does not require entering . The only exception to this is when a log entry number is requested. You must enter < CR> after entering a log number. Events communicate system information from the source of the event to other parts of the system, then to the system administrator. Events are produced by intelligent hardware modules, the operating system, and system firmware. Events funnel into iLO 3 from different sources throughout the server. The iLO 3 stores new events in nonvolatile memory. Text user interface 39
