View Events

The Events page shows events that occurred on the array. You can filter events to narrow the focus of the list. The filter is not persistent: it reverts to the default each time you open the GUI. By default, all events are displayed.
  1. From the menu banner in the array OS dashboard, select Events.
    The Events Log opens.
  2. In the Severity field, select the severity filter limits.
    Limit the list of events to only those of a specific severity level and category (type). For example, you can choose filter limits to see only critical volume events and verify that a specific event occurred, or to view all informational events to track general activity levels.
  3. Filter further by selecting an event category.
  4. Select the date range for which you want to view events.
    The date range that you select depends on what you are looking for. For example, if a large number of events occurred around the same time, you might want to look at the last 7 days or 30 days to see if the events were part of a larger pattern or were an anomaly that was caused by a one-time occurrence.

    Often one event triggers others. For example, a disk failure can cause a scheduled replication or snapshot to fail. Using the recent events list can help you determine if this is the case. You can then take any necessary action.

  5. Select the array or arrays that you want to include.
    NOTE: The Array field only appears if multiple arrays are supported in the network environment.
