Chapter 9: Monitoring Status and Activity ● 104 Double-click to view event details To open a full-screen version of the complete event log, click the Events button on the tool bar. To make it easier to find a specific event, click on the column heads to sort the events. (Sorting events by status icons helps you find specific Error- or Warning-level events quickly.) You can also move the columns of the event log, if required. What Do the Event Status Icons Mean? Adaptec Storage Manager indicates event status with icons. This table lists the three categories, or types, of events based on severity. Icon Status Examples Information ● The local system successfully connected to a remote system. ● A logical drive was created. ● A hot spare was deleted. Warning ● A logical drive is in a degraded state. ● A disk drive is being rebuilt. ● A controller is not responding to an enclosure. Error ● A controller has failed. ● A logical drive has failed. ● A hot spare has failed. ● An enclosure is overheating. ● Multiple fans or power supplies within an enclosure have failed. ● An enclosure is not responding. Warning- and Error-level icons appear next to components (such as systems and logical drives) affected by a failure or error, creating a trail that helps you quickly identify the source of a problem. See Identifying a Failed or Failing Component on page 136 for more information. Note: All Warning- and Error-level events also cause the audible alarm to sound. See page 105 for more information. Clearing the Event Log To clear all event logs belonging to all controllers in a selected system: 1 In the Enterprise View, click on the system you want. 2 On the menu bar, select Actions, then select Clear logs on all controllers. 3 Click Yes to clear the log.
