Logs
Server Administrator displays logs of commands issued to or by the system,
monitored hardware events, and system alerts. You can view logs on the home
page, print or save them as reports, and send them by e-mail to a designated
service contact.
Server Administrator Home Page
The Server Administrator home page provides easy-to-set up and easy-to-use
Web browser-based system management tasks from the managed system or
from a remote host through a LAN, dial-up service, or wireless network.
When the Dell Systems Management Server Administrator Connection
Service (DSM SA Connection Service) is installed and configured on the
managed system, you can perform remote management functions from any
system that has a supported Web browser and connection. Additionally, the
Server Administrator home page provides extensive, context-sensitive
online help.
