Chapter 10: Configuring the HP Server
Pull-Down Menu – SEL
The SEL pull-down menu includes options for reloading SEL entries from the server, clearing the
SEL entries, viewing SEL properties, and sorting the entries by different column fields. These
options are further described in the table below.
Table 10-12. SEL Menu Options
Option Description
Reload This option allows the user to reload the SEL entries from the
server. This operation is similar to the one performed when the
SEL Viewer is first invoked. The records are displayed either in the
hex format or in the interpreted format, depending on the set display
mode. The status box shown in Figure 19 is displayed to indicate
that the SEL Viewer is loading SEL records from the server, and the
message shown in Figure 21 is displayed if the SEL is empty.
Properties This option allows the user to view the SEL properties: IPMI
version, Number of Entries, Last Add Time, Last Erase Time, and
Free Space Remaining. If the SEL is full, the following warning
message is displayed: Warning: System Event Log is
FULL.
Clear SEL This option clears the SEL entries from the non-volatile storage area
of the server as well as the entries from the main window table. A
dialog message prompts the user for the confirmation of clearing the
SEL.
Display In Hex This option allows the user to toggle between the raw hexadecimal
/ Display In mode display and the interpreted mode display. In hex mode
Text display, all the SEL records are displayed in raw hex format. In
interpreted mode display, all the SEL records are decoded and
displayed in text format. The menu item name toggles between
Display in hex and Display in text to allow changing
from one display mode to the other. When the display mode is
changed, SEL Viewer automatically loads the SEL entries from the
server to display the data in the selected mode. Display mode is
toggled between text and hex, automatically, when the SEL entries
are read from a file based on the data format in which the file was
saved.
Sort By This option allows the SEL entries, displayed in the SEL Viewer
main window, to be sorted by different fields. When the Sort By
option is selected, the user is presented with a list of fields by which
the entries can be sorted. The data is then sorted by the selected
field.
Help The help menu displays detailed information about program-usage.
In addition, it also displays the utility version information and IPMI
driver version number.
