omreport: Viewing System Status Using the Instrumentation Service 59
If your system has both a main system chassis and at least one direct attached storage device,
Server Administrator may display a summary that resembles the following example.
NOTE: As with all output shown in this guide, the following output is an example and may vary depending on your
system configuration.
Commands for Viewing Logs
You can use the omreport system command to view logs: the alert log, the command log, the hardware or
ESM log, and the POST log.
NOTE: If the Alert log or Command log displays invalid XML data (such as when XML data generated for the
selection is not well-formed), clearing the log by typing "omconfig system alertlog action=clear" or "omconfig
system cmdlog action=clear" resolves the issue. If you need to retain the log information for future reference, you
should save a copy of the log before clearing the log. See "Commands for Clearing Logs" for more information about
clearing logs.
To view the contents of the alert log, type:
omreport system alertlog
To view the contents of the command log, type:
omreport system cmdlog
To view the contents of the ESM log, type:
omreport system esmlog
To view the contents of the POST log, type:
omreport system postlog
ESM Log Overall Health Status
When you type omreport system esmlog, the Embedded Systems Management (ESM) report
displays. The first line of the report reflects the overall health of the system hardware. For example,
Health: OK means that less than 80 percent of the space allotted for the esmlog is occupied with
messages. If 80 percent or more of the allotted space for the esmlog is occupied, the following
caution appears:
Health: Non-Critical
If a caution appears, resolve all warning and critical severity conditions, and then clear the log.
SEVERITY : COMPONENT
Ok : Main System Chassis
Critical : Storage
