Live Viewer - HP integrity superdome x Service Manual

The OA can timestamp and filter events, then store and transfer them to event log readers. Log entries
can be read by management applications in the following:
• OSs
• OAs
• SEL viewers
• FPL viewers
• Live Event viewers
• EAE
Log entries can be cleared by OS management applications or by the OA itself.
Events are classified into a number of severity levels, ranging from critical failure to non-error forward
progress notification. The severity level is encoded in the alert level data field on an event record.
Different system actions might result from generation of an event record, depending on alert level.

Live viewer

The live event viewer provides a way for you to see records as they occur. The OA supports multiple
simultaneous live event viewers that are created and destroyed dynamically when requested. The
maximum number of simultaneous live event viewers is limited by the number of connections supported
by the OA.
Each live event viewer works independently from any other event viewer, meaning that each live event
viewer can select its own filter and format options without affecting other live event viewers.
The log can be filtered using the following items:
• blade number
• partition number
• alert level
The following format options are also available:
• Keyword—This is the default format for all viewers. The keyword format supplies the following
information about an event:
◦ log number (not for livelogs)
◦ reporting entity type
◦ reporting entity ID
◦ alert level
◦ hexadecimal dump of event records
◦ event ID keyword
• Raw hex—The raw hex format supplies the following information about an event:

• Text—The text format supplies the following information about an event:

• Problem/Cause/Action—The Problem/Cause/Action format displays a problem/cause/action statement
