Troubleshooting
A SIM notifies a storage administrator than an FTP transfer has failed. This can occur when the
audit log file is not transferred to an FTP server because either the FTP server or LAN has failed.
You can view the SIM in the Alerts window. The reference code for a failed FTP transfer is 7C0300.
If a SIM occurs, do the following:
• Resolve the error on the FTP server or LAN, and then manually transfer the audit log file by
clicking Transfer in the Audit Log Transfer window. Then complete the instructions in the SIM
in the Audit Log Transfer window.
• If the error condition cannot be resolved, download the audit log file to the Remote Web
Console computer.
If you change the configuration in the Audit Log Transfer window (when the items set in the window
appear in blue italic letters), click Apply and apply the configuration in the window to the storage
system, and then click Transfer.
Manual Transfer
To transfer the audit log file manually from the SVP to the FTP server:
1. Click Settings>→Security>→Audit log Transfer. The Audit Log Transfer window appears.
2. Click to change to Modify mode.
3. Click Transfer. A message appears indicating that the transfer has completed.
