HPE SMH is the application used to query information about monitored devices and view indications and
instances on WBEM. This WBEM-based network management application enables you to create
subscriptions and view indications.
SysMgmtPlus functionality displays the property pages of various devices and firmware on SMH.
SysMgmtPlus allows SMH to display improved property pages that contain dynamic content, providing
the user to view and hide details of devices and firmware. The Health Tests are associated with
components. The healthtest feature provides an option to perform health test on all the device instances
of the component.
For complete information on installing, administrating, and troubleshooting SFM software and its
components, see the System Fault Management Administrator's Guide (http://www.hpe.com/support/

Errors and error logs
Event log definitions
Often the underlying root cause of an MCA is captured by the server blade or firmware in both the SEL
and FPL logs. These root causes are easily matched with MCA events by timestamps. For example, the
loss of a processor VRM might cause a processor fault. Decoding the MCA error logs would only identify
the failed processor as the most likely faulty FRU. Following are some important points to remember
about events and event logs:
• Event logs are the equivalent of the old chassis logs for status or error information output.
• Symbolic names are used in the source code; for example, MC_CACHE_CHECK.
• The hex code for each event log is 128 bits long with an architected format:
◦ Some enumerated fields can be mapped to defined text strings.
◦ All can be displayed in hex, keyword, or text mode.
• Events are created by firmware or the OS and are stored in either or all of the SEL iLO, and forward
progress event logs.
Events are sent by firmware or the OS over the PDH bus to iLO for storage in both of SEL and FPL
logs. Also, events such as "System Soft Reset," which indicates error reset during MCA, is sent by iLO
itself.
• The iLO 3 MP displays the SEL event logs.
Event log usage
To consult the event logs:
1. Connect to the system console.
2. Enter Ctrl–B to access the MP Main Menu.
3. To view event logs, enter the sl command:
[tfp10mp]</>hpliLO-> sl
