How To
Summary
This document helps with collecting service data from the ASMI graphical user interface (GUI) on an eBMC based server.
Objective
For eBMC-based systems, the ASMI GUI can be used to collect system platform related events. Event logs, sensors data and LEDs status can be useful information for any platform-related error.
Environment
This document applies to IBM POWER10 9043-MRX, 9105-41B, 9105-42A, 9786-42H, 9105-22A, 9105-22B, or 9786-22H systems.
Steps
- Connect to the eBMC GUI with the admin user profile.
If needed, you can use this link: Logging on to the ASMI GUI
If you encounter an issue with admin profile password, you can refer to the video in IBM MediaCenter web site : Lost Admin Password Recovery
1- Event Logs
Expand Logs section and select Event Logs.
Click Download All button which creates a .json file that can be upload to Ecurep.
2- Sensors
- Expand Hardware Status and select Sensors.
- Sensor data is gathered in a few minutes. Once it is complete the blue bar at the top of the screen will disappear, the ITEMS counter will stop increasing. (see extract below)
- Use the search window to display the needed sensor data. To gather fan speeds search “RPM” and for AC power search “Input Voltage”.
- Click to place a checkmark in the top box to select on the items. Click Export button which creates a .json file that can be upload to Ecurep.
To gather all the sensor values, select View All in the Items per page window. Click to place a checkmark in the top box to select on the items. Click Export button which creates a .json file that can be upload to Ecurep.
3- Inventory & LEDs
Use the following procedure to gather the data as a single html page.
- Expand Hardware Status and select Inventory and LEDs.
- Use Ctrl A, then Ctrl C on a windows PC or cmd A and cmd C on a MAC.
- Paste the data into a word-processing program and save it with a .htm extension.
- Check for any Health LED that is not green.
- Expand these LEDs entries to gather the details with a screen capture.
- Upload the files to Ecurep.
4- Deconfiguration resources
- Expand Hardware Status and select Hardware deconfiguration.
- If something is deconfigured then take a screen capture.
- Go to Deconfiguration Records screen (Logs => Deconfiguration records) and click “Export all” button.
It creates a .json file that can be uploaded to Ecurep.
