Viewing the IPMI System Event Log
To view the System Event Log (SEL), use IPMItool.
The out-of-band command is:
# ipmitool -I lan -H spipaddr -P ipmipasswd sel list
The in-band command (using OpenIPMI on a Linux-based server or LIPMI on a
Solaris-based server) is:
# ipmitool -I open sel list
Note – To receive more verbose logging messages, you can run the following
command:
# ssh -l spuser spipaddr sp get events
Clearing the IPMI System Event Log
You can use commands to clear the contents of the IPMI SEL.
Use one of the following commands, depending on your OS:
■ For Linux: ipmitool -I open sel clear
■ For Solaris: ipmitool -I lipmi sel clear
