IDM Events

Sortable columns of information are available for each event:

You can sort the Events listing by Source, Severity, Status or Date. Click the
desired column heading to sort in descending order. Click the column heading
again to sort in ascending order. A down pointer in the column heading
indicates descending order, and an up pointer indicates ascending order.

The Event Log is trimmed at the level specified in the IDM Preferences
window; by default there will be 1000 events in the event log.

Select an event in the Events listing to display the Event Details at the bottom
of the window.

Column Heading Description

Source

This column contains the name or IP address of the component or
device that generated the event.

Severity

The Severity column shows the severity of each event. Events are
categorized into five levels of severity.

Status

The Status column identifies whether the event has been
acknowledged. A check mark in the blue square indicates that the
event has been acknowledged.

NOTE: The Status column shows only unacknowledged events if
events are deleted automatically after being acknowledged. See IDM
Event Settings for additional information.

Date

The Date column lists the date and time when the event occurred,
given in MM/DD/YY/HH:MM format.

Description

The Description column provides a short description of the event. The
description is derived from a list of predefined descriptions based on
the event type.
