Alerts

Certain events called Alerts are tracked by a Matrix Server component. When

the condition causing the event is resolved, Matrix Server closes the Alert.

Event messages for Alerts are displayed on the Alerts pane on the PolyServe

CFS Management Console and are also written to the event logs in the same

manner as other event messages. When Matrix Server closes the Alert, it

removes the event message from the Alerts pane on the Management Console

and generates a second event message stating that the Alert has been

resolved. The second message is also written to the event logs.

Message Severity Levels

Each event message is labeled with a severity level indicating the relative

importance of the condition. The severity levels are:

• Critical. A serious error or event requiring user attention.

• Error. An error or event that typically requires user attention.

• Warning. An error or event that may be indicative of a problem.

• Notice. A normal, but significant condition that did not result in an error

condition.

• Info. An informational or status message about an event.

Audit messages are marked with one of the following severity levels:

• Audit Success. A user requested and was granted authorization to

perform a task.

• Audit Failure. A user requested and was denied authorization to perform

a task.
