Notes: v The BMC log is limited in size and is designed so that when the log is full, new entries will not overwrite existing entries; therefore, you must periodically clear the BMC log from the Configuration/Setup Utility program (the menu choices are described in the User's Guide). v When troubleshooting an error, make sure to clear the BMC log so that you can find current errors more easily. v Entries written to the BMC log early in the POST procedure will show an incorrect date as the default timestamp; however, the date and time will correct itself as POST continues. v Each BMC log entry appears on its own page; to display all the data for an entry, use the up arrow (-) and down arrow (-) or the Page Up and Page Down keys. To move from one entry to the next, move the cursor to the Get Next Entry or Get Previous Entry line; then, press Enter. v The log indicates an Assertion Event when an event has occurred. It indicates a Deassertion Event when the event is no longer occurring. v Some of the error codes and messages in the BMC log are abbreviated. v Viewing the BMC log through the web interface of the optional Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine allows all messages to be translated. The following illustration shows an example of a BMC log entry. BMC System Event Log Get Next Entry Get Previous Entry Clear BMC SEL Entry Number= Record ID= Record Type= Timestamp= Entry Details: 00005 / 00011 0005 02 2005/01/25 16:15:17 Generator ID= 0020 Sensor Type= 04 Assertion Event Fan Threshold Lower Non-critical - going high Sensor Number= 40 Event Direction/Type= 01 Event Data= 52 00 1A You can view the contents of the POST error log, the BMC log, and the system-error log from the Configuration/Setup Utility program. You can view the contents of the BMC log also from the diagnostic programs. Note: When troubleshooting PCI slots, note that the error logs report the PCI buses numerically. The numerical assignments vary depending on the configuration. You can check the assignments by running the Configuration/Setup Utility program (see the User's Guide for more information). Viewing error logs from the Configuration/Setup Utility program For complete information about using the Configuration/Setup Utility program, see the User's Guide. Chapter 5. Diagnostics 71
