ATTO Technology BridgeTools Installation and Operation Manual
4.9 Events panel
Event logs help to troubleshoot hardware failures. This panel configures the event logging features of
the FibreBridge. Some parameters will be “grayed out” if they do not apply to your model of the
FibreBridge or if they have no effect based upon the selected value of a related parameter.
If the SAN is unable to detect or communicate with SCSI
devices connected to the FibreBridge, you can examine the
Event Log to determine if there is a hardware issue with the
FibreBridge or if the problem is due to a configuration error.
If the FibreBridge is configured to log all events, the log can
be lengthy and difficult to interpret. Log events as efficiently
as possible by enabling logging for that section of the
FibreBridge.
Use BridgeTools to configure the type of event logging
desired. To view the actual events, use either Serial or
Ethernet communications tools such as FTP or Hyper
Terminal. Refer to the FibreBridge manual for further
details.
Clear all Events
Erases all previously recorded event log entries.
Event Level (default = all active)
Selects the level of monitoring and logging.
Event Logging (default = active)
Disables Event logging.
Event Subsystem (default = all active)
Selects which hardware subsystems are to be monitored.
Select as many of the hardware systems as needed:
➔
Fibre Channel
➔
SCSI, Ethernet
➔
GBIC
➔
NVRAM hardware systems
Some options will be “grayed out” on the panel: they are not available because of the type of access mode or FibreBridge model or they have no effect based on other
selections. The chart below shows options available based on model and access method.
