System Event Log Manager
The System Event Log (SEL) Manager contains a sequential record of events that have occurred in
the remote server. The SEL can help determine the cause of server system failures. With it you
can:
• Examine SEL records via the Baseboard Management Controller (BMC)
• Examine SEL records by number, timestamp, generator ID, sensor, or event type
• Save SEL records to a file on the local or remote system
• Clear SEL records from the nonvolatile storage area on the server system
Only a single instance of the SEL may be used at a time. You can open the SEL from the Services
menu or the SEL icon on the toolbar. For each entry, the SEL viewer displays:
• A record identifier
• Time stamp information
• The sensor type
• A generator identifier
• The sensor number
• An event description
You can sort the columns in the SEL Manager by clicking the column heading.
Starting the SEL Manager adds the SEL menu to the toolbar, which you can use to see the SEL
properties or reload the SEL Manager.
