Abstract
Approaches in accordance with various embodiments provide for the management of system event data in a computing device. In particular, various embodiments provide an intelligent persistent buffer for system event log (SEL) messages. A SEL message can be generated by system BIOS on a computing device, which can send this message over an appropriate interface to a target recipient, such as the BMC. Instead of being received directly to the BMC, however, the SEL message can be received to a logic device, such as a CPLD, that is able to analyze the message, determine that the message relates to an important system event, and can cause this message to be stored to a persistent buffer. The BMC can then subsequently request the buffered SEL message from the logic device to take an appropriate action.
