Given the issues (previously discussed on this mailing list) with the Dell
"patches" to ipmitool, I wouldn't recommend that over the standard version,
especially since the Dell-patched ipmitool is not needed to see the SEL (system
event log), you can use the standard ipmitool sel list command to see this.
The formatting is different, but I don't think that the delloem version really
adds anything that important:
[r...@sli ~]# ipmitool sel list
1 | 09/01/2010 | 18:21:16 | Event Logging Disabled #0x72 | Log area
reset/cleared | Asserted
[r...@sli ~]# ipmitool sel elist
1 | 09/01/2010 | 18:21:16 | Event Logging Disabled SEL | Log area
reset/cleared | Asserted
[r...@sli ~]# ipmitool delloem sel list
Severity : Normal
Date and Time : System Boot
Description : System Board SEL: Event Log sensor for System Board, log
cleared was asserted
[r...@sli ~]# ipmitool sel help
SEL Commands: info clear delete list elist get add time save readraw writeraw
interpret
[r...@sli ~]# ipmitool delloem sel help
sel list
When used without any arguments, entire contents of SEL are displayed
first <count>
Displays first (least recent) count entries in SEL. Count of 0 will
display all entries
last <count>
Displays last (most recent) count entries in SEL. Count of 0 will
display all entries
If you're having trouble installing ipmitool on your Ubuntu system, you could
also probably use the FreeIPMI ipmi-sel command to view the SEL.
