Last Update—The date and time, as reported by the server clock, when the latest event of this
type occurred. This value is based on the date and time stored by iLO.

The iLO date and time can be synchronized through the following:

System ROM (during POST)

Insight Management Agents (in the OS)

SNTP setting in iLO

SNTP setting in OA (blade servers only)

If iLO did not recognize the date and time when an event was updated, [NOT SET] is
displayed.

Initial Update—The date and time, as reported by the server clock, when the first event of this
type occurred. This value is based on the date and time stored by iLO.

If iLO did not recognize the date and time when the event was first created, [NOT SET] is
displayed.

Count—The number of times this event has occurred (if supported).

In general, serious events generate an event log entry each time they occur. They are not
consolidated into one event log entry.

When less important events are repeated, they are consolidated into one event log entry, and
the Count and Last Update values are updated. Each event type has a specific time interval
that determines whether repeated events are consolidated or a new event is logged.

Description—The description identifies the component and detailed characteristics of the
recorded event.

If the iLO firmware is rolled back to an earlier version, the description UNKNOWN EVENT
TYPE

might be displayed for events recorded by the newer firmware. You can resolve this

issue by updating the firmware to the latest supported version, or by clearing the event log.
