Configuring the Event Log
The DS Management Software suite uses the DSAuth component’s functional-
ity to log event information in a text file that may be audited at a later time.
Events logged by DSAuth include:
• Failed DSAuth authentication attempts. (For example, the error message
Channel Blocked, insuffi cient right access may be output to the event log.)
• Server power state changes
• Appliance reboot requests
• Appliance reFLASH
• SNMP alerts defi ned by the appliance’s fi rmware
• CPS authentication
When all software programs are installed, a modification to the event log of the
computer running DSAuth is required.
