Monitoring alerts and events

The Cyber Recovery software generates notifications about alerts and events.

An alert indicates that an event occurred and might require you to take action.

Alert categories include:

• System—Indicates a system issue that might compromise the Cyber Recovery system such as a failed component
• Storage—Indicates storage issues such as insufficient disk space
• Security—Indicates that a user cannot log in or malware might have been detected
  NOTE By default, the alerts table includes the Security Officer login as a security alert. Use this account only when necessary.

Events indicate system events, such as the start of a job or completion of a retention lock.

You can view alerts and events from:

• The dashboard
• The Alerts and Events content pane
• The icon in the Masthead Navigation (alerts only)

The Alerts and Events content pane enables you to view details, acknowledge, and add notes for alerts. You can only view details for events.
