High attention events and errors. Reading the SEL off the attention LED (blinking yellow
light).
System Event Log
Contains events of all types. Does not need to be cleared. In a web GUI session you
cannot view forward progress logs, only SEL logs.
Forward Progress Log
All events between start of boot and boot complete. You cannot view boot logs or previous
boot logs from a web session.
Boot Log

NOTE: You can view only the most pertinent fields for each event on the web. For a more complete
decoding of the events, use the TUI available by logging in to iLO 2 through Telnet or SSH.
Events
Events can be a result of a failure or an error (such as fan failure, Machine-Check Abort, and so
on). They can indicate a major change in system state (such as, firmware boot start or, system
power on/off), or they can be forward progress markers (such as CPU selftest complete).
Events are produced by intelligent hardware modules, the OS, and system firmware. Events funnel
into the BMC from different sources throughout the server. iLO 2 polls the BMC for new events and
stores them in nonvolatile memory. Events communicate system information from the source of the
event to other parts of the system, and ultimately to the system administrator.
The log viewer contains an event decoder to help you interpret events.
The following event severity (or alert) levels are defined:
0: Minor forward progress
