Windows Event Viewer
In the Windows operating system, an event is a significant occurrence in the system or in an
application that requires administrators to be notified. The operating system writes notifications for
these events to a log file that can be displayed using the Windows Event Viewer. Three different log
files are generated: system, security, and application logs. Storage Mirroring related events are sent
to the application log and are available for viewing through the Event Viewer.
1.
To access the Event Viewer, select Programs, Administrative Tools (Common), Event
Viewer.
2.
To view the events logged for applications, select Log, Application. The following information is
displayed for each event in the Event Viewer window:
Date—The date the event occurred.
Time—The time the event occurred.
Source—The software that logged the event, which can be either an application or a
component of the system, such as a driver.
Category—A classification of the event.
Event—Shows an event number to identify the specific event. The Event helps
product-support representatives track events in the system.
User—Specific text that exactly matches text in the User name field. This field is not case
sensitive.
Computer—The exact name of the computer where the logged event occurred. This field is
not case sensitive.
3.
To view additional details, double-click an event. The additional information is displayed in the
Event Detail screen:

Information, Success Audit, or Failure Audit.
