Clear ESM Logs
The Server Administrator Embedded Server Management (ESM) log, also referred to as the hardware log,
maintains a list of all system events generated by the hardware, such as error-correcting code (ECC),
system reset and boot, and probe threshold changes. You can refer to this log when hardware errors
appear or when the system is not functioning properly.
To run the Clear ESM Logs task:
1. In the OpsMgr console, navigate to a Dell Diagram Views, State Views, or Alerts Views.
2. Select the desired Dell system in any of the Diagram Views or State Views or an alert in the Alerts
Views.
3. In the Tasks pane, select Dell Windows Server TasksClear ESM Logs.
The Run Tasks window is displayed.
4. Click Run to clear the ESM logs of the device that you selected.
When you run the Clear ESM Logs task, on the task execution screen only the result of the task initiating
is displayed. For example, the task execution screen may show a success result even if the ESM logs are
not cleared. This means that the Clear ESM Logs task initiation was successful.
