    hi all

    clearing log file does not solve the problem. For this go to bios setup. In bios setup go to advance menu . From advance go to IPMI, from here go to System event log . Enable this System event log. Save and exit.

    Please try all ,who are facing this problem.



    Thanks & Regards

In HP prolliant server sets, setup also logs system events. This error is due to that log. Enter setup, trace log and clear all events.

    one other clue or decision on all servers set up correctly is how to handle log files.

    there are 3 ways (besides disabled)
    1: wrap
    2: or no wrap.
    I bet you have no wrap and runs out of space.
    3: also there is file size max settings for logs.

    warp means when the fixed size log file reaches the end the new data writes over the oldest (top of file)
    this prevents your problem
    as will setting max size file larger.

    all this is your decision setting up any server fresh and new, and in this case not done right.(IMO)

    some folks backup the logs and reset them every month to keep records of all issues and problems in log files.
    this is management decision. what to do .

BMC Heartbeat blinking

Then you need to look into your System Event Log (SEL) entries to review the issue that is causing it. If the BMC is showing this heartbeat light, that means that there are critical errors piling up in the BMC's SEL log.

You can either do this through the BIOS (assuming IBM implemented that functionality here) OR you can log into your BMC over your OoB network. (Assuming SSH/telnet is not disabled and has a user configured.)

We can not help with this issue any further without SEL logs.
