HP ProLiant Integrated Management Log task
HP ProLiant Servers can have an Integrated Management Log to keep a record of historical hardware
events. Some historical hardware events cannot be reflected to other health collection. Health Collection
logs present the state of Integrated Management Log that might have error or warning states. These states
only appear when any other health collections cannot report the specific hardware issue situation. Two
tasks are provided to eliminate visiting each machine to view and clear records of Integrated
Management Log. These tasks are the following:
• HP ProLiant Integrated Management Log Export—Exports log records
• HP ProLiant Integrated Management Log Clear—Exports, and then clears log records
Both tasks run remotely on the target system with the results seen on task screen on the System Center
Essentials Console. Both tasks are associated with Logs Collection so these can be accessed from Health
Collection State view or Server Diagram view. The task results include a record table with Excel CSV
format, so it can import to Excel after manual editing for easy viewing.
1. Select Health Collection State View. Locate the target Logs collection from the list on the main pane.
