Troubleshooting Tools

The following sections explain how to use the Windows event log, Linux messages file, Solaris messages file, and SANsurfer FC HBA Manager to solve hardware problems.

Windows Event Log

The Windows event log is the main source of information for device driver problems and events. Device drivers usually indicate only status by logging events in the system event Log. SANsurfer FC HBA Manager agents also use the Application Event Log to report service errors, and so on.
