Product Status Log

The Product Status Log (Figure 3–2) records an entry when the status of a switch changes. The log reflects the previous status and current status of the switch, and indicates the instance of a switch product manager application that should be opened to investigate a problem. The information is useful to maintenance personnel for fault isolation and repair verification.

To open the Product Status Log, select Product Status Log from the Logs menu on the navigation control panel.

Figure 3–2: Product Status Log

The log contains the following columns:

•Date/Time - the date and time the switch status change occurred.

•Network Address - the IP address or configured name of the switch. This address or name corresponds to the address or name displayed under the switch icon at the Product View.

•Previous Status - the status of the switch prior to the reported status change (Operational, Degraded, Failed, or Unknown). An Unknown status indicates the HAFM application cannot communicate with the switch.

•New Status - the status of the switch after to the reported status change (Operational, Degraded, Failed, or Unknown).
