Why each option
LCD panel messages on Dell-based appliances display brief status codes that map directly to entries in the System Event Log (SEL), allowing administrators to cross-reference hardware events.
LCD messages can be cleared by an administrator once the underlying issue is acknowledged or resolved.
While DELL OpenManage Server Administrator can display event information, the LCD messages themselves do not appear within that application - they are a separate physical display mechanism.
The LCD panel on Dell appliances is designed to show abbreviated text messages that correspond to events recorded in the System Event Log (SEL). The SEL is the authoritative hardware event repository, and the LCD serves as a quick-reference indicator pointing administrators to the relevant SEL entry for full details. This relationship between the LCD and SEL is a standard Dell hardware management design.
LCD messages reference the System Event Log (SEL), not the DELL OpenManage application log, making this option technically inaccurate.
