Troubleshooting: Your Storage Array Software 255
Event Log
You can use the Event Log Viewer to view a detailed list of events that occur
in a storage array. The event log is stored on reserved areas on the storage array
disks. It records configuration events and storage array component failures.
WARNING: Use this option only under the guidance of your Technical Support
representative.
The event log stores approximately 8000 events before it replaces an event
with a new event. If you want to keep the events, you may save them, and
clear them from the event log.
The event log shows two types of event views:
• Summary view—Shows an event summary in a tabular format.
• Detail view—Shows details about a selected event.
To view the event log:
1 In the AMW, select Advanced Troubleshooting View Event Log.
The Event Log is displayed. By default, the summary view is displayed.
2 To view the details of each selected log entry, select View details.
A detail pane is added to the event log that contains detailed information
about the log item. You can view the details about a single log entry at a
time.
3 To save the event log, click Save As.
The Save Events dialog is displayed.
4 Navigate to the relevant folder, enter the relevant file name, and click
Save.
5 To erase all log entries from the event log, click Clear All.
6 To exit the event log, click Close.
