Using the System Activity Monitor

The AT-S65 management software keeps a list of AT-LX3800U system
events such as the removal of an SFP or the loss of a data link. This list is
called the activity log and you use the activity monitor to display the log.
The activity log contains only those events that have occurred since you
started the management session. Ending the session purges the log. The
activity log can contain up to 256 events. When the maximum number of
events is reached, new events are added to the beginning of the file and
old ones are deleted.

In contrast, the event log contains all system events since the
AT-LX3800U system was last rebooted. For information about the event
log, refer to “Using the Event Log” on page 57.
