Understanding ILOM on the Switch
The switch message log contains events that happened to the switch hardware. This log is stored on the CMC in the /var/log/syslog file. There are two ways to commands that display the log.
The showlogs command provides a more user friendly means of understanding the system events. The output is succinct and events are system-wide.
The CLIA sel command is used to view the system event log (sel) on a specific IPM controller. The sel command gives greater flexibility to viewing the log and the detail of the log entries than the showlogs command.
