Storage Center Monitoring
Unisphere provides a centralized location to view Storage Center alerts, indications, and logs collected by the Storage Center. System
events logged by the Storage Center can also be viewed.
Alerts
Alerts represent current issues present on the storage system, which clear themselves automatically if the situation that caused them is
corrected. Indications warn you about a condition on the storage system that might require direct user intervention to correct.
