MONITORING EDACS FAULT CONDITIONS

device polling will be displayed. The display is in a short report (list) format, with each entry in the report listing the time stamp, alarm description, and severity level of the event.

5.If an object in the map has an operational status color other than normal or unknown, it is likely that events have been generated from that object. To access event information for these objects, select the object in the map and then access the menu item Monitor -> Events. This will bring up the All Events Browser filtering out all events except those for the selected object.

NOTE: If the All Events Browser window appears empty, it may be due to the incorrect filter settings or previous deletion of events related to the object. To set the filter, open the View -> Set Filters and set the desired filters. To access previously deleted events for the node, use the menu item File -> Load Event Log -> Filtered.

8.3.2 Using The OpenView Event Browser

The Event Browser allows the user to perform the following activity:

∙Browse incoming events and events contained in the events log.

∙Filter displayed events based on severity, time, source, message and or event type.

∙Get event help.

By using the Event Browser you can gain insight into the source and types of events, and isolate and correct problems that have generated events. If you have a read-only Event Notification Interface and delete any events, the deleted events will reappear next time the Interface is started, since deleted events are not saved from a read-only Interface.

Each category in the Event Category has its own Event Browser window. The Event Browser window contains a scrolled list of events belonging to the associated category. Events are displayed in different fonts, based on their severity These fonts can be modified, but by default critical and major severity events are displayed in bold font. The Event Browser window also contains status on the number of events in the window, their severity, and any filtering information.

The Event Browser window lists all undeleted events for the indicated category. The events are in chronological order with the most recent event at the bottom of the list.

For each event, the list shows the following.

∙

Severity

The severity of the event.

∙

Date/Time

The day of the week, date and time when the event occurred.

∙

Source

An identifier (such as a node name) for the network object where the event originated.

∙

Message

A brief description of the event.
