Viewing the Event Log
The BIOS-based event log records all firmware events, such as configuration changes, array

Some events are not stored indefinitely—the event log is cleared of any non-persistent events
each time you restart your computer; additionally, once the log is full, new events overwrite old
events.
To view the event log:
1
Start the ARC utility (see
page 84

2
Select the controller you want, then press
Enter
.
3
When the ARC utility menu appears, then press
Ctrl+P
.
4
Select
Controller Log Information
, then press
Enter
.
The current event log opens.
