User's Manual
Severity icons
For users who are members of the Rack Power Manager software administrators or auditor user
groups, the non-critical, critical and non-recoverable icons also appear near the right edge of the
top navigation bar in the RPM Explorer window when events of that severity occur. Each icon
is accompanied by a total count of new events of that severity. The counter is decremented
when an event of that severity is deleted from the event log or when an event’s state is changed
from New to Acknowledged (see Event states on page 286). The counter is incremented when a
new event of that severity is added to the log or when an event’s state is changed from
Acknowledged to New.
