The system event logs contain all event and error messages that have been
generated during POST, by the systems-management interface handler, and by
the system service processor (IMM). Run the diagnostic programs to get more
information about error codes that occur. For additional information about running
the diagnostic programs and viewing the logs, see the Problem Determination
and Service Guide on the IBM System x Documentation CD.
