If an event occurs that causes the operating system to stop running, the
operating-system watchdog is triggered, which causes the IMM to capture the
operating-system-failure screen data and store it. The IMM stores only the most
recent error event information, overwriting older operating-system-failure
screen data when a new error event occurs.
To remotely access a server operating-system-failure screen image, complete the
following steps:
a.

Log in to the IMM. For more information, see Chapter 2, “Opening and
using the IMM Web interface,” on page 9.

b.

In the navigation pane, click System Health, and then scroll down to the
View Latest OS Failure Screen

area.

c.

Click View OS Failure Screen. The operating-system-failure screen image is
displayed on your screen.

7.

Scroll down to the Users Currently Logged in area. The IMM Web interface
displays the login ID and access method of each user who is logged in to the
IMM.

8.

Scroll down to the System Locator LED area. The IMM Web interface displays
the status of the system locator LED. It also provides buttons to change the
state of the LED. For the meaning of the graphics that are displayed in this
area, see the online help.

Viewing the Easy LED Diagnostics

The Easy LED Diagnostics screen displays the name, color, and status of any LEDs
that are lit on the server.

To access and view the Easy LED Diagnostics, complete the following steps:
1.

Log in to the IMM. For more information, see Chapter 2, “Opening and using
the IMM Web interface,” on page 9.

2.

In the navigation pane, click Easy LED Diagnostics to view the recent history
of events on the server.

3.

Scroll down to view the complete contents of the Easy LED Diagnostics.

Note:

If an LED is not lit on the server, the Color column of the Easy LED
Diagnostics table indicates that the LED Color is Not Applicable.

Viewing the event logs

Note:

For an explanation of a specific event or message, see the Hardware
Maintenance Manual
that is available on the Lenovo Support Web site at
http://www.lenovo.com/support.

Error codes and messages are displayed in the following types of event logs:

v

System-event log:

This log contains POST and system management interrupt

(SMI) events and all events that are generated by the BMC that is embedded in
the IMM. You can view the system-event log through the Setup Utility and
through the Dynamic System Analysis (DSA) program (as the IPMI event log).
The system-event log is limited in size. When it is full, new entries will not
overwrite existing entries; therefore, you must periodically save and then clear
the system-event log through the Setup Utility. When you are troubleshooting,
you might have to save and then clear the system-event log to make the most
recent events available for analysis.
