The x-axis represents the number of occurrences of a particular event severity during the 
selected time period. If you pause on a bar, a tooltip shows the number of events with that 
severity level during the selected time period. Also, for each severity, the cumulative number of 
traps, application events, and security events is reported next to the horizontal bar. If Syslog 
messages are included, then they are included in the count. To conserve space, the number is 
shown as is or truncated to the nearest 1,000("K") or 1,000,000("M").
By default, Syslog events are included in the summary; however, because Syslog events occur 
at a much higher frequency than other events and therefore could skew the bars for the other 
events, you can exclude Syslog events. If they are excluded, they will not be displayed in the 
legend. Users’ selections are persisted (per user per server).
Customizing the Events widget 
You can customize the Events widget to include Syslog information (default) on the Event Summary 
pane by selecting the Show Syslog check box.
To exclude Syslog information, clear the Show Syslog check box.
