Event logs
The Management application provides a variety of logs through which you can monitor the SAN.
You can view all events that take place in the SAN through the Master Log at the bottom of the
main window. You can also view a specific log by selecting an option from the Monitor menu’s Logs
submenu. The logs are described in the following list:
•
Audit Log. Displays all ‘Application Events’ raised by the application modules and all Audit
Syslog messages from the switches and Brocade HBAs.
•
Event Log. Displays all ‘Product Event’ type events from all discovered switches and Brocade
HBAs.
•
Fabric Log. Displays ‘Product Events’, ‘Device Status’, and ‘Product Audit’ type events for all
discovered fabrics.
•
FICON Log. Displays all the ‘RLIR’ and ‘LRIR’ type events, for example, ‘link incident’ type
events.
•
Product Status Log. Displays events which indicate a change in Switch Status for all discovered
switches and Brocade HBAs.
•
Security Log. Displays all security events for the discovered switches.
•
Syslog Log. Displays syslog messages from switches and HBAs.
The Management application also has an event notification feature. By configuring event
notification, you can specify when the application should alert you of an event. For details, refer to
“Configuring e-mail notification”
on page 201.
For information about the Master Log interface, fields, and icons, refer to
“Master Log”
on page 7.
