223 Filtering the events Although you can easily sort the displayed events by clicking the column headings, you can also filter the list so that the right pane displays only events that occurred on specific dates, only specific kinds of events, and/or only events with certain words in their description. To filter the events list: 1 Open SAN Disk Manager (as described in "Starting SAN Disk Manager" on page 212). 2 In the navigation tree, expand Events, right-click the events that you want to filter (IMA Events or Host Application Events), and then click Set Filter. 3 If desired, specify the desired time range. • To display all events that have occurred since a specific date or time, up to the present, select the From check box and specify the desired date and time in the adjacent lists. (Leave the To check box cleared.) • To display all events that have occurred up to a specific date or time, select the To check box and specify the desired date and time in the adjacent lists. (Leave the From check box cleared.) • To display all events that have occurred between specific dates or times, select the From check box and specify the beginning date and time in the adjacent lists. Then select the To check box and specify the ending date and time. • If you clear both the From and To check boxes, the time range is not limited. 4 Select or clear the desired Type check boxes to specify the kind of events that you want to display. (You can select more than one check box, but you must select at least one to display any events.) For example, to view events that resulted from successful operations, select the Information check box. To view events that are not necessarily problems but that might have destructive or irreversible consequences, select the Warning check box. To view events that indicate serious problems or require intervention or correction, select the Error check box. 5 If desired, specify the text that should appear in the event description in the Description search text box.

Filtering the events
Although you can easily sort the displayed events by clicking the
column headings, you can also filter the list so that the right pane
displays only events that occurred on specific dates, only specific kinds
of events, and/or only events with certain words in their description.
To filter the events list:
1
Open SAN Disk Manager (as described in “Starting SAN Disk
Manager” on page 212).
2
In the navigation tree, expand Events, right-click the events that
you want to filter (IMA Events or Host Application Events), and
then click
Set Filter
.
3
If desired, specify the desired time range.
To display all events that have occurred since a specific date or
time, up to the present, select the From check box and specify
the desired date and time in the adjacent lists. (Leave the To
check box cleared.)
To display all events that have occurred up to a specific date
or time, select the To check box and specify the desired date
and time in the adjacent lists. (Leave the From check box
cleared.)
To display all events that have occurred between specific
dates or times, select the From check box and specify the
beginning date and time in the adjacent lists. Then select the
To check box and specify the ending date and time.
If you clear both the From and To check boxes, the time range
is not limited.
4
Select or clear the desired Type check boxes to specify the kind of
events that you want to display. (You can select more than one
check box, but you must select at least one to display any events.)
For example, to view events that resulted from successful
operations, select the Information check box. To view events that
are not necessarily problems but that might have destructive or
irreversible consequences, select the Warning check box. To view
events that indicate serious problems or require intervention or
correction, select the Error check box.
5
If desired, specify the text that should appear in the event
description in the Description search text box.
