You can only select "C" - clear all logs.

If you don't have any problems with the system, you can delete the logs now.

Hi Sakthi,

NOTE: IEL logs cannot be cleared.

iLO Event Log
The log viewer enables you to view the contents of the iLO Event Log stored in nonvolatile memory.

IEL, that is, "iLO Event Log" contains events corresponding to Login/Logout actions to MP and execution of MP commands. When ever a user performs a Login to MP, or Logout from MP, an event is logged. If the user fails to Login to MP, an event is logged if the number of continuous login failure attempts equals the password fault value.
