NOTE:
Remember that:
•
E
shows only event logs for Warning, Critical, or Fatal faults by default;
F
shows all event
log outputs.
•
System Event Logs (SELs) are never overwritten, unless they are first manually cleared:
since they employ ring buffering, oldest logs get overwritten first. Forward Progress Logs
(FPL) are circular and contain additional, non-critical information.
•
The alert threshold can be changed.
