SP Command Console Buffer

SP Command Console output from the service processor might contain important
information, such as the cause of a system state change. With the LAN console,
however, you cannot monitor the console output from the end of iSP startup until the
LAN console connection is established. Therefore, the iSP has a function to save a
certain amount of message output in a buffer while the connection is being established
to the SP Command Console. About 1,000 lines of messages can be stored in this
buffer. The buffer stores the latest 1,000 lines of messages. You can use the ML
command to view the messages stored in the buffer.
