Event Message Severity Level

Note
If you run a fabric merge check between a secure fabric and a nonsecure fabric, the results of the
Security, FCS policies, version stamp, and Management Server platform tests display the message, "Not
applicable to subject fabrics."
Figure 25-3 Merge Check Results
If the two zone databases on the fabrics will prevent the fabrics from merging, you are queried
about launching the Zone Merge Manager tool.
5. Optional: Launch the Zone Merge Manager tool.
This tool highlights all of the zoning conflicts between the two fabrics in red. With this information,
you can resolve the conflicts and apply the results to either of the fabrics.
The Merge Check Results window displays again. At the zoning test stage, it reports, "Merge
Check Successful," along with the results of the other tests.
If you decided not to use the Zone Merge Manager tool, then the zoning test reports that "Operator
cancelled zone merge - Merge Check Failed" for the zoning test, along with the results of all the
other tests in the Merge Check Results window.
Event Message Severity Level
Fabric Manager writes event messages to a log file, which can then be used to capture diagnostic
information. You can set the log parameters to capture diagnostic information only at the severity level
you want. Configuring the severity level determines which messages you want Fabric Manager to save
to the log file. Any changes you make to the log level are immediate (they do not require an application
restart).
To configure the severity level of event messages that are logged
1. Click Edit > Preferences.
The Preferences window displays.
2. Expand User Specific and click Log Parameters.
