Before you begin
Before you begin viewing or exporting the Lifecycle Controller logs for a single system or a collection:
• If the Lifecycle Controller on the target systems is running other tasks such as firmware update,
operating system deployment, firmware configurations, exporting a system profile or importing a
system profile, wait for the tasks to complete before you retrieve the logs.
• Check the permissions on the network share and make sure the share is accessible from the Lifecycle
Controller on the target systems.
Workflow

view the Lifecycle Controller logs of a collection of systems, launch the Config Utility. For more
information, see System Viewer Utility or Configuration Utility.
