Table 5 Port operational states State Description Warning event-An event that indicates errors or other conditions that may require attention in order to maintain maximum performance. Warning messages will not be posted to the screen unless the log is configured to do so. Warning messages are not disruptive and therefore, do not meet the criteria of Critical. The user need not be informed asynchronously No icon Informative-An unclassified event that provides only supporting information. NOTE: Events (Alarms, Critical, Warning, and Informative) generated by the web applet are not saved on the switch. They are permanently discarded when you close a QuickTools session; however, you can save these events to a file on the workstation before you close QuickTools and read it later with a text editor or browser. Events generated by the switch are stored on the switch, and will be retrieved when the web applet is restarted. Some alarms are configurable. Filtering the Event Browser Filtering the Event Browser enables you to display only those events that are of interest based on the event severity, timestamp, source, type, and description. To filter the Event Browser, open the Filter menu and select Filter Entries. This opens the Filter Events dialog box (Figure 12). The Event Browser displays those events that meet all of the criteria in the Filter Events dialog box. If the filtering criteria are cleared or changed, then all the events that were previously hidden that satisfy the new criteria will be shown. You can filter the Event Browser in the following ways: • Severity-Select one or more of the corresponding options to display alarm events, critical events, warning events, or informative events. • Date/Time-Select one or both of the From: and To: options, and enter the bounding timestamps (MM/DD/YY HH:MM:SS AA, where "AA" indicates AM or PM) to display only those events that fall within the selected times. The current year (YY) can be entered as either 2 or 4 digits. 30 Managing fabrics
