Enabling the command allows you to create
an automatic backup of ESM Logs. After the
backup is created, ESM logs of the Server
Administrator and the SEL entries of
iDRAC/BMC are cleared. The process is
repeated whenever the logs are full.
The backup files are:
Windows: <Install_root>\omsa\log
\omsellog.xml
Linux and ESXi: <Install_root>/var/log/
openmanage/omsellog.xml
NOTE: This command is applicable
only on YX0X and YX1X generation of
PowerEdge servers. On Dell’s YX2X
generation of PowerEdge servers and
later, iDRAC provides capability of
automatic clear of log entries and file
backup. Only latest version of the
backup XML file is available in the
mentioned locations.
attribute=logallsensors setting=Enable|Disable Enabling the command allows you to log all
unmonitored ESM sensor events in to Alert
log, OS log, and generates the SNMP traps.
