Intel Server Management (ISM) Installation and User's Guide
Serial Data and the Command Line Interface
System Event Log Manager
The System Event Log (SEL) contains a sequential record of events that have occurred in the remote server.
The SEL can help you determine the cause of server system failures. With the SEL Manager you can:
• 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
For each entry in the System Event Log, the SEL Manager 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.
Sensor Data Records Manager
The Sensor Data Records (SDR) Manager displays information recorded from each configured sensor in the
managed server. Record data is displayed in hexadecimal or binary form. The contents of the SDR file can
help determine the cause of server system failures.
Using the SDR Manager, you can:
• Examine Sensor Data Records
• Examine SDRs by Record type
• Save SDRs to a file on the local or remote system
The SDR Manager displays detailed information when you select a specific sensor type in the SDR
information tree.
Field Replaceable Unit Manager
The Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) Manager displays a hierarchical tree of FRU components and detailed
inventory information for each selected unit. Highlight a component in the tree to see its associated
inventory information. The information, based on the Intelligent Peripheral Management Interface (IPMI)
specification, includes part numbers, serial numbers, manufacturer’s names, version numbers, and asset tag
numbers.
The contents of the FRU inventory files can help identify components that may be of interest while
troubleshooting a system failure. Using the FRU Manager, you can:
• Examine individual FRU inventory areas
• Save FRU inventory information to a file on the local or remote system
