such as a server power outage or a server reset, and Remote Insight events, such as a loose cable or
an unauthorized login attempt.
Integrated Management Log
RILOE II manages the IML of the server, which can be accessed by using a supported browser, even when
the server is not operational. This capability can be helpful when troubleshooting remote host server
problems.
The IML enables you to view logged remote server events. Logged events include all server-specific events
recorded by the system health driver, including operating system information and ROM-based POST
codes. For more information, refer to the server guide.
1. Click Clear Event Log to clear the event log of all previously logged information.
2. Click OK to confirm that you want to clear the event log. A line indicating that the log has been
cleared is logged.
