Accessing System Log Error Information
Note: The system attention LED can be reset by following the procedures described in "Resetting the
System Attention LED."
When an error is detected by the system, information about the error is stored in error logs. The following
sections explain how to access the logs that are available on a system. The error logs are accessed from
the console that is used to manage the system. From the following console descriptions, go to the
instructions under the heading that best describes the system on which you are working:
v "Accessing Errors when a System is Running AIX."
v "Accessing Errors when a System is Running Linux."
Accessing Errors when a System is Running AIX
If the system attention LED comes on and the system is running AIX, do the following to access the error
logs:
1. If the system is operational, examine the AIX error log to see if user intervention is required.
2. If the system is powered off, examine the service processor error log for entries.
3. If the AIX error log indicates service support is required, or there are entries in the service processor
error log, go to "Entry MAP" on page 41 with the information noted from the error log.
Accessing Errors when a System is Running Linux
If the system attention LED comes on and the system is running Linux and is not attached to an HMC, do
one of the following:
v If you performed "Step 1321-43" on page 70 in "MAP 1321: Quick Entry MAP for Systems with Service
Focal Point" on page 61, return to "Step 1321-43" on page 70 to process any other symptoms.
v If you have not performed any of the steps in "MAP 1321: Quick Entry MAP for Systems with Service
Focal Point" on page 61, go to step "Step 1321-1" on page 61 and perform the procedures in the MAP.
Resetting the System Attention LED
Complete one of the following procedures to reset your attention LED.
Note: Because this system runs a single operating system in a full system partition and does not connect
to an HMC, references to Service Focal Point software do not apply. If you were directed here to
reset the system attention LED, use the following procedures.
