Monitoring Server Events

MegaRAID Storage Manager monitors the activity and performance of all controllers in the server and the devices attached to them. When an "event" occurs-such as the completion of a consistency check or the removal of a physical drive-an event message appears in the log displayed at the bottom of the MegaRAID Storage Manager screen. These event messages also appear in the Windows Application log (the Event Viewer).

Each event in the log includes an error level-Information, Warning, Critical, Fatal, or Dead-a date/time stamp, and a brief description. (For a list of all events, see Events and Messages) The status bar at the bottom of the screen indicates whether the log displayed is a server log or a log being displayed from a locally stored file. (This file could have been generated by a previous "Save Log" action.)

When a server log is displayed, the Log menu has three options:

When a local log is displayed, the status bar lists the name of the local log file, and the Log menu has an additional option, Read Server Log, that enables you to retrieve the server log. The Clear Log option is disabled when a local log is displayed.
