Fabric event monitoring
Fabric events are events generated by the Fabric OS. Fabric Manager displays these events in the
Information panel. These events are stored in the Fabric Manager database.
Fabric event viewing
You can monitor fabric and switch events from the Events tab in the Information panel. The Events
tab allows you to filter events to include only the information you want, and export, copy, and print
the table. The Events table displays a maximum of 1000 events. If there are more than 1000
events and you choose to view them all, see “Viewing all events” on page 103.
You should view fabric events on a periodic basis to see if any action is required. How often you
should check depends on your company’s requirements.
Events have the following severities:
• Panic
• Critical
• Error
• Warning
• Information
• Debug
