iBMC Logs
Function Description
- On the Operation Logs page, you can view and download logs recorded during system operation, including information about system startup, status transition, and configuration performed by users on the iBMC.
The iBMC provides 200 KB capacity for storing up to 2000 operation log records.
When the operation log reaches 200 KB, it will be automatically compressed. When a new compressed package is generated, the old compressed package will be automatically deleted.
Operation logs that record successful power-on, power-off, and reset operations indicate that the iBMC has successfully triggered the operations, but do not necessarily mean that these operations were successfully executed on the hardware.
- On the Run Logs page, you can view RAS logs of the server.
The iBMC provides 200 KB capacity for storing up to 2000 run log entries.
When the log reaches 200 KB, it will be automatically compressed. When a new compressed package is generated, the old compressed package will be automatically deleted.
- On the Security Logs page, you can:
- View logs about the iBMC login and logout over a serial port Secure Shell (SSH) and about setting operations.
- View logs about query and set operations performed over SNMP.
- Download security logs.
The iBMC provides 200 KB capacity for storing up to 2000 security log entries.
When the log reaches 200 KB, it will be automatically compressed. When a new compressed package is generated, the old compressed package will be automatically deleted.
