3.7.0 HP StorageWorks HP Scalable NAS File Serving Software event notification guide HP Scalable NAS for Linux (AG513-96007, June 2009)

Event messages
Each message is labeled with a unique identifier and provides the following
information. Some event messages also describe corrective actions or workarounds.
• A description of the event, including the time it occurred.
• The location of the event, such as the IP address of a server.
• The source of the event, such as a HP Scalable NAS component.
• A severity level that indicates the relative importance of the event.
• A category such as Startup or Filesystem that can be used for sorting when
viewing the cluster log. Audit trail messages and certain other messages do have
a category.
Alerts
Certain events called Alerts are tracked by a HP Scalable NAS component. When
the condition causing the event is resolved, HP Scalable NAS closes the Alert. Event
messages for Alerts are displayed on the Alerts pane on the HP Management Console
and are also written to the event logs in the same manner as other event messages.
When HP Scalable NAS 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.
