Events are data items that communicate system information from the source of the event to other

parts of the system, then to you. Events are produced by intelligent hardware modules, the

operating system, and system firmware. Events funnel into BMC from different sources throughout

the server. The iLO 2 MP polls the BMC for new events and stores them in nonvolatile memory.

• SEL: High attention events and errors.

• Forward progress: All events.

• Boot log: All events between start of boot and boot complete.

• Previous boot log: The events from the previous boot.

Reading the SEL is the only way to turn off the attention LED (flashing yellow light).

Table 6-3 shows the events and actions used to navigate within the logs.
