SEL and FPL Log Entries

This section is a quick reference for the IPMI events recorded in the SEL and FPL files. These
logs are available via the MP card interface or the BMC CLI.
• All entries from the SEL are forwarded to the FPL. The FPL is a circular log so the newest
entries replace the oldest. The FPL contains forward progress messages from the BMC,
System firmware, EFI, and the operating system.
• The SEL will not accept new entries once it is full and contains only those events considered
of major importance to system operation.
• Both contain type 02 and E0 messages.
• A triplet is formed from the SensorType, EventType, and the lower nibble of the Data1
fields of Type 02 events. MP firmware displays the triplet in the Keyword field.

Accessing the Logs With BMC CLI Commands

The fpl command displays the forward progress log. For example:
Type 1
02 0000000E -
E0 0000000F 2
E0 00000010 2
E0 00000011 0
E0 00000012 0
E0 00000013 1
E0 00000014 1
E0 00000015 0
E0 00000016 0
E0 00000017 0
E0 00000018 0
02 00000019
The sel command displays the system event log. For example:
Type 1 2

Each column in the log contains a different data field:
1 Record ID
2 Severity for E0 messages
3 Generator ID or sensor reporting the event
4 Text description of events
5 Sensor number - Sensor Type: Event Type: Data1 fields for type 02 messages (triplet) event
ID for E0 messages
6 Data2 and Data3 for type 02 messages (if applicable) or data type for E0 messages
7 Timestamp or extended data specific to the event
