10.5.4 Event tracing
It is possible to duplicate log events generated by the agent(s), operating on the managed machine,
in the Application Event Log of Windows; or send the events to the specified SNMP managers. If you
do not modify the event tracing options anywhere except for here, your settings will be effective for
each local backup plan and each task created on the machine.
You can override the settings set here, exclusively for the events occurred during backup or during
recovery (see Default backup and recovery options.) In this case, the settings set here will be
effective for operations other than backup and recovery, such as archive validation or cleanup.
You can further override the settings set in the default backup and recovery options, when creating a
backup plan or a recovery task. The settings you obtain in this case will be plan-specific or
task-specific.
10.5.4.1 SNMP notifications
This option is effective for both Windows and Linux operating systems.
This option is not available when operating under the bootable media.
The option defines whether the agent(s) operating on the managed machine have to send the log
events to the specified Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) managers. You can choose the
types of events to be sent.
