Server Administrator Logs
Overview
Server Administrator allows you view and manage hardware, alert, POST, and command logs.
All users can access logs and print reports from either the Server Administrator home page or from
its command line interface. Users must be logged in with Admin privileges to clear logs or must be
logged in with Admin or Power User privileges to e-mail logs to their designated service contact.
See the Server Administrator Command Line Interface User's Guide for information about viewing
logs and creating reports from the command line.
When viewing Server Administrator logs, you can click Help on the global navigation bar for more
detailed information about the specific window you are viewing. Server Administrator log help is
available for all windows accessible to the user based on user privilege level and the specific hardware
and software groups that Server Administrator discovers on the managed system.
