Chapter 5. Problem determination
Use the information in this section to isolate and resolve issues that you might encounter while using your
server.
Lenovo servers can be configured to automatically notify Lenovo Support if certain events are generated.
You can configure automatic notification, also known as Call Home, from management applications, such as
the Lenovo XClarity Administrator. If you configure automatic problem notification, Lenovo Support is
automatically alerted whenever a server encounters a potentially significant event.
To isolate a problem, you should typically begin with the event log of the application that is managing the
server:
• If you are managing the server from the Lenovo XClarity Administrator, begin with the Lenovo XClarity
Administrator event log.
• If you are using some other management application, begin with the Lenovo XClarity Controller event log.
Notes:
• For your server, the Lenovo XClarity Controller web page or command-line interface does not support the
display of system utilization information for the following:
– Processor
– memory module
– I/O
Event logs
An
alert
is a message or other indication that signals an event or an impending event. Alerts are generated by
the Lenovo XClarity Controller or by UEFI in the servers. These alerts are stored in the Lenovo XClarity
Controller Event Log. If the server is managed by the Chassis Management Module 2 or by the Lenovo
XClarity Administrator, alerts are automatically forwarded to those management applications.
Note:
For a listing of events, including user actions that might need to be performed to recover from an
event, see the
Messages and Codes Reference

Lenovo XClarity Administrator event log
If you are using Lenovo XClarity Administrator to manage server, network, and storage hardware, you can
view the events from all managed devices through the XClarity Administrator.
