Event Log List Window
The Event Log List window generates the system’s event log list at the
bottom of the RAIDWatch screen. The Event Log window gives users
the real-time monitoring, alerting as well as status reporting of the RAID
systems.
When a new event is generated, the icon under Severity column will
flash to draw user’s attention. The severity icons also indicate the
severity level of an event. (See Table 11-2) You can easily read the time
of an event occurred by viewing the Time column.
