Log Viewing Options: Activity, Error, and Live Chassis Logs
Enter the chassis log viewer by entering SL at the service processor (MP or GSP) Main menu,
and select from these viewers:
• Activity Log Viewer Allows you to browse recorded event logs of alert level 0 or 1.
• Error Log Viewer Allows you to browse recorded event logs of alert level 2 or higher.
• Live Chassis Logs Viewer Displays event logs in real time as they are emitted.
By default, the live event log viewer has the Alert filter enabled, which causes it to display
only the events of alert level 3 or higher.
To view all event logs in real-time, enter U for the Unfiltered option.
You can also filter the live codes by cell (C) or nPartition (P). Cell filter: displays event logs
emitted by a specific cell in the server complex. Partition filter: displays event logs emitted
by hardware assigned to a specific nPartition.
When viewing event log logs, enter V to change the display format. The viewers can show event
logs in text format (T), keyword format (K), or raw hex format (R).
Virtual Front Panel (VFP) nPartition Views
The Virtual Front Panel (VFP) provides ways to monitor the boot or run the status of each cell
in an nPartition and of the nPartition itself. The VFP provides information that is typically
displayed on the LCD of a non-partitionable server.
The VFP presents a real-time display of activity on the selected nPartition(s) and it automatically
updates when the cell and nPartition status change.
To access the VFP feature, enter VFP from the service processor Main menu. To exit the VFP,
enter ^b (Control-b) to return to the Main menu.
When you access a Virtual Front Panel, you can either select the nPartition whose VFP you want
to view or select the system VFP to view summary information for all nPartitions in the server
complex.
