Object State Changes (OSC) Window
You can use the Object State Changes (OSC) window to obtain a history of object state changes.
The OSC view provides both a high-level graphical overview of object state changes and a detailed
log of state changes. The OSC window consists of two areas, so you can obtain both high-level
and detailed state change information.
The upper portion of the OSC window provides a scoreboard with an annotated matrix of the
number and type of state changes that have occurred.
Each row of the scoreboard represents the different entity types monitored (for example, CPU,
Disk, and Expand entities).
Each column of the scoreboard represents different possible object states (for example, Up, Down,
and Warning states).
Selecting a cell in the scoreboard causes an analysis of the OSC log in the lower part of the
window. All object state changes that match the selected entity and state are selected. For example,
clicking the cell for the Disk row and the Down column selects all Down Disk items in the OSC
log.
