Events Category

Windows SnapSAN Manager records significant events and errors that occur on a
storage appliance. To see these records, select the Events view to view the log.
Administrators can be notified when events occur using the notification mechanism
described in
Events have types associated with them:
• Information
Information events indicate normal operational events. Examples include
appliance startup and shutdown, creation and deletion of storage volumes and
password changes.
• Warning
Warning events indicate that something unexpected has occurred but that it is
unlikely to be an ongoing problem. Examples include failed iSCSI logins
(possibly indicating an attempted security breach) and lost network connections.
• Error
Error events indicate a serious problem, such as the failure of a hardware
component, perhaps leading to a RAID array going into degraded mode.
If a warning event occurs, the System Status, shown at the top of the Events view, will
change from OK to Warning. If an error event occurs, the System Status will change to
Error.
After a warning or error has been dealt with, the status can be reset manually by
clicking the Reset State button (or selecting Reset System State from the Appliance
Tasks list.
