10.4 Collecting Maintenance Data
System problems include cases where the partition abnormally stops and cases where the partition is running
but hangs. In all such cases, you need to collect data for investigation to troubleshoot the problem.
Be sure to configure the memory dump before starting to use the PRIMEQUEST 2000 series server. Fujitsu
uses this information to identify the cause of the system problem and solve it quickly.

10.4.1 Logs that can be collected by the MMB
The MMB Web-UI can collect the events that occur in the PRIMEQUEST 2000 series system.
The SEL (system event log) can hold up to 32,000 events. When the SEL is full, each new entry will replace
the oldest entry in the SEL.
You can filter the event logs to display, download event log stored in the SEL, and clear all the stored event
logs in the SEL from the [System Event Log] window.
This section describes operations with the SEL.
