Event Type, Filter File, Search Pattern and Save Events to Log are all considered Advanced Options. They are
not displayed by default. Click on the “Show Advanced Option” to see them. If any of these options are set to
non-default value, “Advanced Options are set” message is displayed. In order to hide these options click on
‘Hide Advanced options’ link.
Save Events to Log (Check box): You may choose to save the Events that meet your selection options to a log
file, in addition to displaying them on a live screen. To do so, check the box in this section. This causes the
selected Events to be written to alternate Collector $ALOG (configurable via Web ViewPoint startup file). This
Collector uses a log file (name format: ZZEV0000) in the volume and sub-volume where the process was
originally created. If it is left to Web ViewPoint to start the collector, the log file will reside in the same
location where Web ViewPoint is installed. In case of multiple residents it will contain events from all the
residents whose sources have been mentioned.
The Save Events to Log feature is disabled if SAVEEVENTS PARAM is absent or set to ‘No’.
Event Types: A combination of the types of events that should be shown can be specified by selecting the
appropriate radio button. The different event types are Critical, Non-Critical and Action. For each of the types,
the options are All, Outstanding and None. Outstanding events are events that have not been acknowledged
by any user.
