System Logs, Auditing, and Active
Connections
Your ReadyNAS system provides system logs, file and protocol auditing, and active
system connection tracking (only available on systems using Intel CPUs).
System logs provide information about the status of various system management tasks,
including a time stamp. You can view system log messages from the Admin Page,
download the complete system logs to a local computer, and receive system alerts.
These logs are used primarily to troubleshoot problems. If you call NETGEAR technical
support, the representative might ask you to send your system logs.
Depending on the settings, the system logs record events such as the following:
•
System events such as the creation or deletion of a share, LUN, snapshot, or low disk
space
•
Addition and removal of hot-swappable disks
•
Detection of disk types and hardware statistics
•
Removal and addition of eSATA expansion chassis
•
Removal and addition of power supplies
•
Removal and addition of a UPS
•
Connection and disconnection of external USB devices
The following events are recorded in the system log and also generate alerts (see
Configure System Alerts on page 186) and SNMP traps (see SNMP Monitoring on page
250). Warnings also display on the Admin Page when these events occur:
•
Disk errors and failures
•
Changes in network connectivity
•
Power supply failures
•
UPS failures
