Getting Started Step 5: Customizing Adaptec Storage Manager ● 63 Broadcasting Event Alerts from a System You can set the Adaptec Storage Manager Agent to send event alerts about a specific system to all users who are logged into your storage space network. You might want to do this if your storage space isn't managed by a dedicated person, or if that particular system is off-site or isn't connected to a monitor. Event alerts signal to everyone working on the storage space that technical assistance is required for that system. For more information, see Broadcasting Event Alerts to Users on page 105. Changing a System's Event Log Setting By default, all Warning- and Error-level events on a system are recorded in the operating system event log.
