Monitoring and Managing the Events Log
InForm OS Version 2.2.4 3PAR InForm OS CLI Administrator’s Manual
 The raw space alert is a global threshold that can be set for the storage system in order to
alert administrators when available space on the system falls below a user-specified level.
When the available space on the storage system falls below this user-specified threshold, an
alert is generated. The following section describes how to set and change this raw space
alert threshold.
11.3.1 Setting the Raw Space Threshold Alert
X To set a raw space alert for the storage system with Nearline type drives, issue the
setsys RawSpaceAlertNL <threshold>
command.
X To set a raw space alert for the storage system with Fibre Channel type drives, issue the
setsys RawSpaceAlertFC <threshold> command.
For each command above,
<threshold> is an integer from 100 to 100000 that represents
the total available space on the system in gigabytes. A value of 0 effectively disables the
raw space alert safety feature.
11.4 Monitoring and Managing the Events Log
System events include all alerts the system has generated and alerts marked as acknowledged
or fixed. These system events are generated and logged in the system events log. For detailed
information about the events log, see the InForm OS Concepts Guide.
11.4.1 Viewing the Events Log
X To view the events log, simply issue the showeventlog command.
The eventlog display can be refined to include only events occurring before or after a
specified time, within a specified time period, and that match a specified pattern. For
complete information on the events log’s display options, see the InForm OS Command Line
Interface Reference.
11.4.2 Removing the Events Log
X To remove all events logs from the system, issue the removeeventlog command.
