Server Administrator Logs
Overview
Server Administrator allows you to view and manage hardware, alert,
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 Administrator privileges to clear logs or must be
logged in with Administrator or Power User privileges to e-mail logs to their
designated service contact.
See the Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Command Line Interface
User's Guide, at support.dell.com, for information about viewing logs and
creating reports from the command line.
When viewing Server Administrator logs, you can click Help 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.
