Chapter 11: Monitoring Your Storage Space ● 102 Clearing the Event Log To clear the event log of all recorded activity: 1 In the menu bar of the main Adaptec Storage Manager window, click Actions, select Agent actions, then click Clear the configuration event log. 2 Click Yes to clear the log. The log is cleared, except for one event reporting that the log was cleared. What Do the Status Icons Mean? Adaptec Storage Manager indicates event status with icons. The Table below 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 created; a logical drive was deleted. Warning A logical drive is in a degraded state; a disk drive is being rebuilt. Error A controller has failed; a logical drive has failed; a hot spare has failed; a disk drive within a logical drive has failed. Warning- and Error-level icons appear next to components (such as systems and logical drives) affected by a failure or error, creating a trail, or rapid fault isolation, that helps you identify the source of a problem when it occurs. See Identifying a Failed or Failing Component on page 147 for more information. Note: All Warning- and Error-level events also cause the audible alarm to sound. See page 121 for more information.
