Description
The event source represents the actual source of data for Sentinel.
Unlike other components this is not a plug-in, but is a container for
metadata, including runtime configuration, about the event source.
In some cases a single event source could represent many real
sources of event data, for example if multiple devices are writing to
a single file.
Description
Indicates that the component is stopped.
Indicates that the component is running.
Indicates that a warning is associated with the component. At this
time, this warning indicator is primarily used to show when the
configured state and actual state of a component differ, that is, a
component is configured to be running, but the actual state of the
component is stopped.
Indicates that an error is associated with the component. See the
individual component's status display for details about the error.
Indicates when the time of a component differs from the main
server's time. The difference is greater than a predefined time
threshold.
Indicates that the component is in Debug mode. Only a Collector can
be in Debug mode.
This indicator is displayed when the status of the object in the ESM
panel is not yet known.
