Markus Hilger c13a434246 Say when a named log source answered with nothing
An ipmi node named no source at all, so -s dropped every event, and a
log with no entries can never be named by one.

nodeeventlog(8) -- Pull eventlog from confluent nodes
============================================================
## SYNOPSIS
`nodeeventlog [options] [-s <sources>] <noderange> [clear]`
## DESCRIPTION
`nodeeventlog` pulls and optionally clears the event log from the requested
noderange.
A platform may keep its events in more than one log, and some of those are
noisier than others. Reading gathers every log the platform describes as an
event log, wherever it keeps them, and `-s` narrows the output to the ones
asked for. `-s list` names the logs a node offers rather than showing entries.
A source is named by the entries that come from it, so a log that holds no
entries is not among them, and a node whose logs are all empty names none. An
ipmi managed node keeps its events in the one log the spec gives it, which is
reported as `SEL`.
Clearing is deliberately narrower than reading: it only touches the logs the
platform's own manager publishes, so a log that only a read reaches is never
destroyed by one. A selection cannot be cleared, so `-s` and `clear` are
refused together.
## OPTIONS
* `-m MAXNODES`, `--maxnodes=MAXNODES`:
Specify a maximum number of nodes to clear if clearing log, prompting if
over the threshold
* `-l LINES`, `--lines=LINES`:
return the last <n> entries for each node in the eventlog.
* `-t TIMEFRAME`, `--timeframe=TIMEFRAME`:
return entries within a specified timeframe for each node's event log.
This will return entries from the last <n> hours or days. 1h would be
entries from within the last one hour.
* `-s SOURCES`, `--source=SOURCES`:
only show entries from the named logs, comma delimited and matched without
regard to case. `-s list` names the logs the node offers instead of showing
entries. A platform that named a log "list" would be shadowed by that.
Asking for a log the node named nothing from is reported on stderr and
exits non-zero, rather than looking like an empty log.
* `-h`, `--help`:
Show help message and exit
## EXAMPLES
* Ask which logs a node keeps:
`# nodeeventlog n2 -s list`
`n2: AuditLog,EventLog,Logs,SEL`
* Pull only the sel and the chassis log, leaving the audit noise out:
`# nodeeventlog n2 -s SEL,Logs`
`n2: 07/23/2026 13:03:12 SEL: Processor - Thermal Trip`
`n2: 08/05/2026 04:30:26 Logs: PowerUnit - Power Off`
* Pull the event log from n2 and n3:
`# nodeeventlog n2,n3`
`n2: 05/03/2017 11:44:25 Event Log Disabled - SEL Fullness - Log clear`
`n2: 05/03/2017 11:44:56 System Firmware - Progress - Unspecified`
`n3: 05/03/2017 11:44:39 Event Log Disabled - SEL Fullness - Log clear`
`n3: 05/03/2017 11:45:00 System Firmware - Progress - Unspecified`
`n3: 05/03/2017 11:47:22 System Firmware - Progress - Starting OS boot`
* Pull and clear the event log from n2 and n3:
`# nodeeventlog n2,n3 clear`
`n2: 05/03/2017 11:44:25 Event Log Disabled - SEL Fullness - Log clear`
`n2: 05/03/2017 11:44:56 System Firmware - Progress - Unspecified`
`n2: 05/03/2017 11:48:29 System Firmware - Progress - Starting OS boot`
`n3: 05/03/2017 11:44:39 Event Log Disabled - SEL Fullness - Log clear`
`n3: 05/03/2017 11:45:00 System Firmware - Progress - Unspecified`
`n3: 05/03/2017 11:47:22 System Firmware - Progress - Starting OS boot`
`# nodeeventlog n2,n3`
`n2: 05/03/2017 11:48:48 Event Log Disabled - SEL Fullness - Log clear`
`n3: 05/03/2017 11:48:52 Event Log Disabled - SEL Fullness - Log clear`
