Re: Does redhat linux log all hardware events/issues/error in /var/log/mcelog?

I have downloaded and installed the OpenManage from Dell.
The following commands say if the health of system components is OK.
omreport chassis - health of all main components of the system chassis
omreport chassis processors - cpu health
omreport chassis memory - memory health
omreport chassis pwrsupplies - power supply health
omreport storage controller - raid controller health

However this leaves out the integrated NIC ports and the HBA adapters.
What linux / dell open manage commands can be used to confirm if those are
healthy as well?

Thanks,

Hi,

We run redhat linux on intel hardware (mostly Dell, lately dell R710s).
We want to be able to catch any hardware issues when they occur to act
on
them as quickly as possible.

My understanding is that all hardware events/issues/errors are logged in
/var/log/mcelog (Machine Check Events log). Is this correct? Can't
stress
this enough; does it log all hardware issues
(cpu,memory,disk,ethernet,**fibre/hba etc) ?

Thanks,


I've used MCElog to catch some CPU events but I think you might want to
check out Dell's OpenManage client. It will report/monitor a lot more
information.

Have you installed all OMSA components?
See the CLI User's Guide
http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/software/svradmin/7.0/en/index.htm
http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/software/svradmin/7.0/en/CLI/PDF/CLIUG.pdf
Have you tried to open 1311 port and connect to the https://<server>:1311
to check if the OMSA is showing everything?

You can try:

omreport system summary
or
omreport servermodule summary
or
omreport chassis nics index=n
or
omreport mainsystem nics index=n
or
omreport chassis nics config=team index=n
or
omreport mainsystem nics config=team index=n
