CIMC Log
Viewing the CIMC Log
| Command or Action | Purpose | |
|---|---|---|
| Step 1 | Server# scope cimc | Enters the CIMC command mode. |
| Step 2 | Server /cimc # scope log | Enters the CIMC log command mode. |
| Step 3 | Server /cimc/log # show entries [detail] | Displays CIMC events, including timestamp, the software module that logged the event, and a description of the event. |
This example displays the log of CIMC events:
Server# scope cimc
Server /cimc # scope log
Server /cimc/log # show entries

Clearing the CIMC Log
| Command or Action | Purpose | |
|---|---|---|
| Step 1 | Server# scope cimc | Enters the CIMC command mode. |
| Step 2 | Server /cimc # scope log | Enters the CIMC log command mode. |
| Step 3 | Server /cimc/log # clear | Clears the CIMC log. |
The following example clears the log of CIMC events:
Server# scope cimc
Server /cimc # scope log
Server /cimc/log # clear
System Event Log
Viewing the System Event Log
| Command or Action | Purpose | |
|---|---|---|
| Step 1 | Server# scope sel | Enters the system event log (SEL) command mode. |
| Step 2 | Server /sel # show entries [detail] | For system events, displays timestamp, the severity of the event, and a description of the event. The detail keyword displays the information in a list format instead of a table format. |
This example displays the sysem event log:
Server# scope sel
Server /sel # show entries
Time Severity Description

Clearing the System Event Log
| Command or Action | Purpose | |
|---|---|---|
| Step 1 | Server# scope sel | Enters the system event log command mode. |
| Step 2 | Server /sel # clear | You are prompted to confirm the action. If you enter y at the prompt, the system event log is cleared. |
This example clears the system event log:
Server# scope sel Server /sel # clear This operation will clear the whole sel. Continue?[y|N]y
