Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Version 7.4 User's Guide

Use the Alert log to monitor various system events. The Server Administrator generates events in response to changes in the status of sensors and other monitored parameters. Each status change event recorded in the Alert log consists of a unique identifier called the event ID for a specific event source category and an event message that describes the event. The event ID and message uniquely describe the severity and cause of the event and provide other relevant information such as the location of the event and the monitored component's previous state.

To access the Alert log, click System, click the Logs tab, and click Alert.

Information displayed in the Alert log includes:

• The severity level of the event
• The event ID
• The date and time that the event was captured
• The category of the event
• A description of the event
