Fabric Manager Events Tab

The Fabric Manager Events tab, available from the topology window, displays the events Fabric Manager
received from sources within the fabric. These sources include SNMP events, RMON events, system
messages, and system health messages. The Events tab shows a table of events, including the event name,
the source and time of the event, a severity level, and a description of the event. The table is sortable by
any of these column headings.

Event Information in Fabric Manager Web Server Reports

The Fabric Manager web server client displays collections of information gathered by the Performance
Manager. This information includes events sent to the Fabric Manager Server from the fabric. To open
these reports, choose Performance Manager > Reports. This opens the web client in a web browser
and displays a summary of all fabrics monitored by the Fabric Manager Server. Choose a fabric and then
click the Events tab to see a summary or detailed report of the events that have occurred in the selected
fabric. The summary view shows how many switches, ISLs, hosts, or storage elements are down on the
fabric and how many warnings have been logged for that SAN entity. The detailed view shows a list of
all events that have been logged from the fabric and can be filtered by severity, time period, or type.

Events in Device Manager

Device Manager displays the events when you choose Logs > Events. Device Manager can display the
current list of events or an older list of events that has been stored on the Fabric Manager host. The event
table shows details on each event, including time, source, severity, and a brief description of the event.
