interface. For more information, see “Logging on to the IMM web interface” on page 135. You can also
view the IMM event log through the Dynamic System Analysis (DSA) program (as the ASM event log). For
more information about IMM error messages, see Appendix C “Integrated management module II (IMM2)
error messages” on page 475.
• DSA event log: This log is generated by the Dynamic System Analysis (DSA) program, and it is a
chronologically ordered merge of the system-event log (as the IPMI event log), the IMM chassis-event log
(as the ASM event log), and the operating-system event logs. You can view the DSA event log through the
DSA program (see “Viewing event logs without restarting the server” on page 162). For more information
about DSA and DSA messages, see “Dynamic System Analysis program” on page 164 and Appendix B
“DSA diagnostic test results” on page 345.
For more information about viewing the logs or clearing the logs, see “Viewing event logs through the Setup
utility” on page 162, “Viewing event logs without restarting the server” on page 162, and “Clearing the error
logs” on page 163.
Viewing event logs through the Setup utility
This topic provides instructions on how to view the event logs through the server Setup utility.
To view the UEFI/POST event log or system-event log, complete the following steps:
Step 1. Turn on the server.
Step 2. When the prompt
<F1> Setup
is displayed, press F1. If you have set both a power-on password and
an administrator password, you must type the administrator password to view the event logs.
Step 3. Select System Event Logs and use one of the following procedures:
• To view the POST event log, select POST Event Viewer .
• To view the system-event log, select System Event Log .
Viewing event logs without restarting the server
Use this information to learn how to view event logs without restarting the server.
If the server is not hung and the IMM is connected to a network, methods are available for you to view one or
more event logs without having to restart the server.
If you have installed Dynamic System Analysis (DSA) Portable, you can use it to view the system-event log
(as the IPMI event log), or the IMM event log (as the ASM event log), the operating-system event logs, or the
merged DSA log. You can also use DSA Preboot to view these logs, although you must restart the server to
use DSA Preboot. The server comes with DSA Preboot stored in integrated USB memory. To install DSA
Portable or check for and download a later version of DSA Preboot CD image, go to
https://
support.lenovo.com/solutions/LNVO-DSA .
If IPMItool is installed in the server, you can use it to view the system-event log. Most recent versions of the
Linux operating system come with a current version of IPMItool.
You can view the IMM event log through the Event Log link in the integrated management module (IMM)
web interface. For more information, see “Logging on to the IMM web interface” on page 135.
The following table describes the methods that you can use to view the event logs, depending on the
condition of the server. The first three conditions generally do not require that you restart the server.
