Troubleshooting: Your Storage Array Software 245
Event Log
You can use the Event Log Viewer to view a detailed list of events that occur
in a storage array. The event log is stored on reserved areas on the storage array
disks. It records configuration events and storage array component failures.
WARNING: Use this option only under the guidance of your Technical Support
representative.
The event log stores approximately 8000 events before it replaces an event
with a new event. If you want to keep the events, you may save them, and
clear them from the event log.
The event log window shows two types of event views:
• Summary view—Shows an event summary in a tabular format.
