Warning Messages
A warning message alerts you to a possible problem and prompts you to respond before the system continues a task. For example, before you format a
diskette, a message will warn you that you may lose all data on the diskette. Warning messages usually interrupt the task and require you to respond by
typing y (yes) or n (no).
Diagnostics Messages
When you run system diagnostics, an error message may result. Diagnostic error messages are not covered in this section. Record the message on a copy of
the Diagnostics Checklist in "Getting Help," and then follow the instructions in that section for obtaining technical assistance.
Alert Messages
Systems management software generates alert messages for your system. Alert messages include information, status, warning, and failure messages for
drive, temperature, fan, and power conditions. For more information, see the systems management software documentation.
Baseboard Management Controller Messages
The Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) enables you to configure, monitor, and recover systems remotely. BMC uses the system's serial port and
integrated NIC1 to support fault logging and SNMP alerting.
For additional information on using BMC, see the documentation for the BMC and systems management applications.
