Deleting event logs

The VSM client enables you to delete an event log from a VSM server.

To delete an event log:

1.

In the navigation tree, right-click the Event Viewer node and select Delete Log on VSM. The Save
dialog box appears.

2.

In the File Name field, enter a complete path on the VSM server in which to save your user backup
file with a name for the file.

3.

Click Save. The Save dialog box closes and the Delete VSM Event Log wizard opens to the Delete
VSM Event Log screen. The name of the backup file path you entered in the Save dialog box
appears in the Backup file field.

4.

If you want to compress the backup file, check Compress backup file.

5.

Click Next. A confirmation screen appears.

6.

Click Finish. The event log is deleted from the VSM server and is emptied in the VSM client until
the next event is logged.

Configuring event log notifications

When specific events occur, the VSM client can automatically send event notification e-mails to specific
users. To configure the specific events that trigger event notification e-mails and the specific users who
receive event notification e-mails, you can configure event log notification groups. An event log
notification group is a group of users who are notified when certain events occur. Before you can
configure an event log notification group to receive notifications, you need to make sure that there is
a common e-mail address or Outlook contact group for the members of the group.

NOTE:

To support the use of a Microsoft Outlook contact group, the VSM server must be on the network and
the SMTP server and port of the Outlook mail server must be defined in VSM Monitor, an application
that runs on the VSM server computer.

You can:

Create new event log notification groups

Edit event log notification groups

Delete event log notification groups

Creating new event log notification groups

To create a new event log notification group:

1.

From the Tools menu, select Options > Event Log. The Options dialog box appears.

2.

Click the Notifications tab.
