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.
