HP Network Direr Software Products manual Last number of days Filter, Resolved Filter

342CHAPTER 8: THE EVENT LOG

The default is All, and no events are filtered based upon severity.

If you select a specific severity then only events with that severity will be displayed in the Events list.

Last number of days Filter

This field filters the events by time.

This filter works in numbers of days. The default is thirty, and the list includes an all option, which results in events not being filtered based on time.

The time period covered by the filter is calculated when the filter is updated and is based upon the time that the filter is updated. So, for example, if you specify a 1-day filter and then click OK to apply the filter at 10:00am, the Events list will be filtered for events that have occurred since 10:00am yesterday.

The time period covered by the filter is not dynamically updated. So, for example, if at 11:00am you have not closed the Events window since specifying the 1-day filter at 10:00am and have not updated the filter since then, the Events list will remain as filtered for events that have occurred since 10:00am yesterday, not since 11:00am yesterday. If you do wish to filter for events that have occurred since 11:00am yesterday then you may achieve this by selecting Edit > Filter and then clicking OK to close the Filter dialog box and update the filter.

Resolved Filter

This field filters events based upon whether they are resolved or not.

There are three options for filtering on resolution state:

All: Events will not be filtered based upon whether they are resolved or not. This is the default.

Yes: Only resolved events will be shown in the Events list.

No: Only unresolved events will be shown in the Events list.

Information severity events, which have their resolved field set to Not applicable are treated as resolved events by this filter, and so will be shown in the Events List if you select All or Yes for this filter.
