Post; Error Logs - IBM BladeCenter PN41 Problem Determination And Service Manual

POST

When you turn on the DPI blade, it performs a series of tests to check the operation
of the DPI blade components and some optional devices in the DPI blade. This
series of tests is called the power-on self-test, or POST.

Error logs

There are two types of error logs for the DPI blade: the advanced management
module log and the Application Server Module (ASM) log.
The advanced management module log contains all critical errors, such as voltage
and temperature errors. It also contains data about the DPI blade status. The
advanced management module log does not contain application-related status.
The ASM provides all the physical property information, application information,
status messages, and error messages that are necessary to describe the DPI
blade. You can view this information from the Web Management Interface or the
command-line interface.

first error message, the other error messages usually will not occur the next time
you run the test.
according to the position of the DPI blade in the blade bays. If a DPI blade is
moved from one bay to another, the management-module event log reports
messages for that DPI blade in relation to the new bay number; messages for
that DPI blade that were generated before the move will still be listed in relation
to the previous bay number.
