the server immediately shuts down and sends an alert to configured
remote alert recipients. You must select the Voltage check box on the
Alerts page for the alert to be sent.

Note: The hard shutdown alert is sent only if a soft shutdown alert has

not yet been sent.

6. Scroll down to the Fan Speeds section. The ASM Web interface displays the

running speed of the server fans (expressed in a percentage of the maximum
fan speed). You receive a fan alert (Multiple Fan Failure or Single Fan Failure)
when the fan speeds drop to an unacceptable level or the fans stop. You must
select the Fan check box on the Alerts page for the alert to be sent.

Viewing the event log

The Event Log page contains all entries that are currently stored in the server event
log and POST event log of the remote managed server. Information about all
remote access attempts and dial-out events is recorded in the Remote Supervisor
Adapter or ASM processor event log. You can view the Remote Supervisor Adapter
event log for all of the servers on an ASM interconnect network. The Remote
Supervisor Adapter and ASM processor time stamp all events and log them into the
event log, sending out the following alerts, if configured to do so by the system
administrator:

Note: The event log of a Remote Supervisor Adapter that is installed in an xSeries

330 server does not contain server events. You must log in to the ASM
processor to view the server event log and POST event log.

The event log has a limited capacity. When that limit is reached, the older events
are deleted in a first-in, first-out order.

Complete the following steps to access and view the event log:

1. Log in to the Remote Supervisor Adapter. For more information, see Chapter 2,

“Opening and using the ASM Web interface” on page 3.

2. For an xSeries 330 server: Log in to the ASM processor. For more information,

see “Logging in to the ASM processor in an xSeries 330 server” on page 6.
