Using the system event log
LO100 captures and stores the IPMI event log for access through a browser, CLP, BIOS Setup Utility, and
RBSU even when the server is not operational. The system event log lists a short description of each
system event. Recorded events include abnormal temperature, fan and voltage events, system resets,
system power loss, user login, and unsuccessful login attempts.
Accessing the system event log from a web browser
