GetMaintenEventLog

Shows the managed system's current maintenance event logs (including both BIOS and BMC maintenance event logs). Both --st and --et options are used to show logs at a specified time range. With --count, shows the specified number of logs. With --file, the maintenance event log can be saved in a MaintenEventLog.txt file.

Syntax

OOB

saa -i <IP or host name> -u <username> -p <password> -c GetMaintenEventLog [--st <start time> --et <end time>] [--count <log count>] [--file <MaintenEventLog.txt> [--overwrite]]

In-Band

saa -c GetMaintenEventLog [--st <start time> --et <end time>] [--count <log count>] [--file <MaintenEventLog.txt> [--overwrite]]

Multiple Systems OOB

saa -l <system list file> [-u <username> -p <password>] -c GetMaintenEventLog [--st <start time> --et <end time>] [--count <log count>] [--file <MaintenEventLog.txt> [--overwrite]]

Options

  • --st <start time>: Enters the start time in YYYYMMDD format
  • --et <end time>: Enters the end time in YYYYMMDD format
  • --file <file name>: Saves the maintenance event log to a file (prints on screen if the file-saving function is not available)
  • --count <maintenance log count>: Enters the log count (if zero, the entire maintenance event log is displayed)
  • --overwrite: Overwrites the output file

Notes

  • If the "Status" field of a managed system (e.g., 192.168.34.56) shows SUCCESS, its maintenance event logs are stored in its output file, e.g., MaintenEventLog.txt.192.168.34.56. The --overwrite option forces overwrite of an existing file.
  • If the --file option is not used, the event logs of each managed system will be shown in its "Execution Message" section in the created execution log file.
