Doc Text: |
* The ipmievd, under certain conditions, did not log any new messages to
the SEL buffer, which could include possible critical messages. In these
updated OpenIPMI packages, the system administrator will be warned of the
fact that ipmievd will soon be unable to log further messages, via syslog
overflow messages, before the SEL buffer becomes full. In addition, if this
situation has already occurred, then syslog overflow messages will be
logged stating that the buffer has already become full.
