SEL Manager Add-in
Clicking on the SEL Manager Add-in task brings up the Server Event Log (SEL) viewer. You can
load and view the current SEL data stored in the BMC, save the currently loaded SEL data to a file,
view previously saved SEL data, or clear the SEL.
When the SEL Manager is first invoked, it loads the System Event Log entries from the server. If
there are no SEL entries, a message box is displayed.
The SEL Manager main window is based on a multi-column format. All SEL entries are displayed
in this window, one system event per row. Each column can be sorted by clicking on the column
heading. The event number is tied to the particular event even if any other column sorts the list.
The following keyboard keys are used to scroll the event columns. The F4 key shifts the event
columns left, while the F5 key shifts the event columns right.
The SEL Manager has the following menus:
