– Event logs for RAID controllers and service processors

The diagnostics programs create a merged log that includes events from all collected logs. The information is collected into a file that you can send to the Lenovo technical support team to help diagnose a problem. Additionally, you can view the information locally through a generated text report file. You can also copy the log to a removable medium and view the HTML log from a Web browser.

For additional information about diagnostics, see Chapter 4, “Diagnostics,” on page 19.
