iLO 2 Log
The iLO 2 Log page displays the iLO 2 Event Log, which is a record of significant events detected by iLO
2. Logged events include major server events such as a server power outage or a server reset and iLO 2
events such as unauthorized login attempts. Other logged events include successful or unsuccessful
browser and Remote Console logins, virtual power and power cycle events, clear event log actions, and
some configuration changes, such as creating or deleting a user.
iLO 2 provides secure password encryption, tracking all login attempts and maintaining a record of all
login failures. Authentication Failure Logging allows you to configure logging criteria for failed
authentications. You can configure tracking failed login attempts for every attempt or every second, third,
or fifth attempt, and captures the client name for each logged entry to improve auditing capabilities in
DHCP environments, as well as recording account name, computer name, and IP address. When login
attempts fail, iLO 2 also generates alerts and sends them to a remote management console.
Events logged by higher versions of iLO 2 firmware might not be supported by earlier versions. If an event
is logged by an unsupported firmware, the event is listed as
UNKNOWN EVENT TYPE.
You can clear the
event log to eliminate these entries, or update the firmware to the latest supported version.
To access the iLO 2 Log, click

IML
The IML page displays the Integrated Management Log, which is a record of historical events that have
occurred on the server as reported by various software components. Events are generated by the system
ROM and by services like the System Management (health) driver. The IML enables you to view logged
remote server events. Logged events include all server-specific events recorded by the system health driver,
including operating system information and ROM-based POST codes. For more information, see to the
server guide.
Entries in the IML can assist during problem diagnosis or help identify possible problems before they
occur. Preventative action might be recommended to avoid possible disruption of service. iLO 2 manages
the IML, which can be accessed using a supported browser, even when the server is off. The ability to
