Event Log
Overview The Management Card supports event logging for all UPS application
firmware modules (sumx300.bin, sy300.bin, and dp3e300.bin.) This
allows you to record and view UPS, Environmental Monitoring SmartSlot
Card, and Management Card events.
You can use any of the following to view the event log:
• Web interface
• Control Console
•FTP
Logged events By default, any event which causes an SNMP trap is logged, except for
SNMP authentication failures. Additionally, the Management Card logs
its abnormal internal system events. However, you ca n use the Actions
option in the Web interface’s Events menu to disable the logging of
events based on their assigned severity level, as described in Event
Actions (Web Interface only) on page 53.
Note: Some system (Management Card) events do not have a
severity level. Even if you disable the event log for all severity
levels, these no-severity events will still be logged.
For a list of the UPS, Environmental Monitoring SmartSlot Card, and
Management Card events, see Management Card and Device Events
on page 61.
Note: The event log will log a graceful shutdown of the UPS, even
when that shutdown was not initiated by the Management Card.
A graceful shutdown from SP=1 typically indicates that
PowerChute plus or PowerNet Manager performed the
shutdown. A graceful shutdown from SP=0 typically indicates
that a management peripheral, such as PowerView or the Out-
of-Band Management SmartSlot Card, initiated the shutdown.
Web in terf ace The Log option in the Events menu accesses the event log, which
displays up to the last 300 recorded events, in reverse chronological
order. A Delete Log button allows you to clear all events from the log.
Control Console You can access the Management Card's Control Console from a local
computer (direct serial-cable connection) or over the network (using
Telnet). In the Control Console, press CTRL-L to display the event log.
The most recent events are displayed first. Use the SPACE BAR to view
up to the last 300 recorded events. While viewing the log, type d and
press ENTER to clear all events from the log.
