ESM Log Overall Health Status

When you type omreport system esmlog, the Embedded Systems Management (ESM) report displays. The first line of the report reflects the overall health of the system hardware. For example, Health: OK means that less than 80 percent of the space allotted for the esmlog is occupied with messages. If 80 percent or more of the allotted space for the esmlog is occupied, the following caution appears:

Health: Non-Critical

If a caution appears, resolve all warning and critical severity conditions, and then clear the log.
