The Storage Management Appliance maintains the following logs that you can

use to review system operation.

components and services, as well as by SAN devices and storage management

applications. See

information.

Application Log—A Windows operating system log containing events

reported by applications or programs. Each application determines which

events to record. Management features are similar to the Event Log.

the operating system components. For example, the log can report that a

driver or other system component failed to load during startup. Management

features are similar to the Event Log.

such as valid and invalid logon attempts as well as events related to resource

use such as creating, opening, or deleting files. Management features are
