Enabling the Rank Column in Event Manager
By default, the Rank column in Event Manager is hidden. The Rank column displays the cost
implication of an event, which is determined by the business cost of the application that uses the
element and the severity of the event. The business cost of an application is set in System Manager,
as described in ” Assigning a Business Cost to a Application ” on page 248.
To enable the Rank column:
1. Click Options > Storage Essentials > Manage Product Health. Then, click Advanced
in the Disk Space tree.
2. Click Show Default Properties at the bottom of the page.
