Viewing compute node events and problems
There are several ways to view compute node events and problems in the IBM® Flex System Manager management software web interface.
About this task
An event is a user or system activity that is logged with a message. Two types of events are displayed in the management software: events for the Flex System Manager Types 7955, 8731, and 8734 hardware and events for the compute nodes and other resources managed by the management software.
A problem is an actionable event that can either be resolved or be submitted for resolution through the management software Electronic Service Agent™ (ESA) and Service and Support Manager.
For more information about how to address problems with Service and Support Manager, see Solving problems. For more information about configuring ESA, see Setting up Electronic Service Agent (ESA).
You can use the Chassis Manager in the management software to view events and problems for a chassis or for a resource within a chassis. Use the Chassis Manager page, the Events page, or the Problems page to see a high-level view of all events or problems. Use the Chassis Map view in Chassis Manager to view events and problems for a resource that is under management.
