Learn how to manage serviceable events, including viewing the events' properties, associated FRUs, how to close an event, and how to view additional details.

  3. Choose from the following options:
    • To view properties, continue with step 4.
    • To view associated FRUs, continue with step 5.
    • To close a serviceable event, continue with step 6.
    • If you have SRUser role or DEUser role, to view additional details for a serviceable event, continue with step 7.
