+==== Diagnostic Example ====

+When using the Web Console, there are many things you can do, one of these is to look at the server logs. Click on the second tab <color #00a2e8>Server Health</color>.
+\\
+\\
+Now click the <color #00a2e8>Event Log</color> entry on the left hand side.

+I had a server that would not install any OS, and kept rebooting. The install errors made little sense, so the Even Log was checked by a colleague, and here we can see that is is full of <color #00a2e8>CPU DIMM: E1</color> errors, indicating that this DIMM has developed a fault.

+\\
+So if you have a server that is being troublesome, it is worth using the BMC to check for any errors.
