List Active events via HP ilo?

Question

If you ssh to a Lenovo IMM card, you have the "syshealth activeevents" command to list the currently active events (HW issues, etc.).

Q: But what is the same command for this function on the HP-ilos? Is there any similar, via SSH?

Answer 1

Look at the server’s IML log either from the OS or the ILO interface.

“hplog -v”

It's better to do this from the OS.

If you must SSH directly into the ILO, you should really be scripting this. In general, you can access the IML log via SSH interactive CLI and use the show /system1/log1/recordn command, where "n" is the record number in IML.

Or from the CLI.

[root@xt ~]# ssh -l Administrator c2-esx1ilo show /system1/log1/record*

show /system1/log1/record*
