severity of the event.
NOTE: The Event Status button ( ) is disabled in Capacity Manager and Performance Manager.
The triangle corresponding to the highest severity is shown. For example, the management server
displays an icon for a critical event next to an element that might also have minor events.
Since the severity level for an element is set by the manufacturer, the meanings of the severity levels
vary. It is best to view the description of the event.
Use the Severity drop-down menu to filter which type of events you want to view. It displays the
severity icons with the selected severity level or higher. For example, you can be notified of just
critical and major events by selecting Major from the Severity drop-down menu and clicking the
button.
See the following table for a description of each severity level.
