Clearing IPMI Log Entries

I saw this error message on my FreeNAS system,

IPMI SEL low space left: 0 bytes (100% used).
This can happen to any system. In my case, it is that motherboard battery somehow has low voltage and needs replacement. However, one issue is to clear the IPMI SEL log entries to make some space. The following command allows me to clear the log entries,

sudo ipmitool sel clear

  1. so... the logs reside where? stored on the motherboard itself?

    what exactly is running out of space?
