Retrieve system event logs in VxFlex Ready Node servers

Perform this procedure to access the system events logs (SEL) in a VxFlex Ready Node server.

Prerequisites

Ensure that you have access to the following:
  • IP address of the iDRAC port
  • Login credentials for the iDRAC (admin/admin as default username/password)

Steps

  1. From a web browser, go to http://<IP_address_iDRAC_port>.
  2. In the Console Login window, type the user name and password, then click Login.
  3. To view the event log, select View Logs in the Quick Launch Tasks pane.
    The System Event Log is displayed with color-coded severity levels.
  4. To save the event log, click the Save As button at the bottom of the table.
    The event log is saved in a .CSV file.

    The power supply- and fan-related errors in Event Log may be intermittent in nature, and therefore may display repetitive events for one module. For such errors, it is recommended that you remove the module and replace it in its socket. This might be a connection-related issue.
