IBM System x3650 M3 4255 Service Guide

System event messages log
The system event messages log contains messages of three types:
Information
Information messages do not require action; they record significant
system-level events, such as when the server is started.
Warning
Warning messages do not require immediate action; they indicate possible
problems, such as when the recommended maximum ambient temperature
is exceeded.
Error Error messages might require action; they indicate system errors, such as
when a fan is not detected.
Each message contains date and time information, and it indicates the source of
the message (POST or the IMM).
Integrated management module error messages

v Follow the suggested actions in the order in which they are listed in the Action column until the problem
is solved.
v See Chapter 4, “Parts listing, Types 4255, 7945, and 7949 server,” on page 157 to determine which
components are customer replaceable units (CRU) and which components are field replaceable units
(FRU).
v If an action step is preceded by “(Trained service technician only),” that step must be performed only by a
trained service technician.
