Viewing events
The GUI dashboard specifies the number of events that have occurred in the last 24 hours. Click
Events in the GUI Navigator to view a report of the events. You can also view events that have
been reported for specific file systems or servers.
On the CLI, use the ibrix_event command to view information about cluster events.
To view events by alert type, use the following command:
ibrix_event -q [-e ALERT|WARN|INFO]
The ibrix_event -l command displays events in a short format; event descriptions are truncated
to fit on one line. The -n option specifies the number of events to display. The default is 100.
$ ibrix_event -l -n 3

Use the ibrix_event -p command to removes event from the events table, starting with the
