ABSTRACT:
The exemplary embodiments provide a computer-implemented method, apparatus, and computer-usable program code for reporting operating system faults on an Intelligent Platform Management Interface compliant server. In response to receiving an alert for an operating system fault, the alert for the operating system fault is converted into an IPMI event. The IPMI event is stored in an internal event log. An IPMI system event record is created for the IPMI event. The IPMI event is sent to a host management controller in order to enable monitoring of the operating system fault.
