HP Integrity rx2660 Server User Service Guide

NOTE:
• E shows only event logs for Warning, Critical, or Fatal faults by default; F shows all event log
outputs.
• System Event Logs (SELs) are never overwritten, unless they are first manually cleared: since
they employ ring buffering, oldest logs get overwritten first. Forward Progress Logs (FPL) are
circular and contain additional, non-critical information.
• The alert threshold can be changed.
