Managing Events
This section describes how to view all events and alerts in the management system using the management console. It also
provides instructions on viewing an audit of events and alerts for system auditing purposes.
A summary of events and alerts is used to obtain an easy-to-read daily summary of what has happened in the system. The Audit
window arranges the information into a typical audit log-view. You can view the timestamp, event type, source, and description
of each event in the order of time.
