Event Log
The Event Log maintains a list of significant events locally. Alternatively it can use an NFS log file,
SMTP email, or SNMP to distribute event information on the network. The Spider monitors five
classes of events with the logging of each enabled or disabled.
To configure event log settings, perform the following steps.
1. Click Services > Event Log. The Event Log page displays.
Figure 9-11 Event Log Page
2. Modify the following fields:
Event Log Targets
Table 9-12 Event Log Targets
Field Description
List Logging Enabled Check this box to use the internal log list of the Spider. The maximum
number of entries is 1,000. Every entry that exceeds this limit overrides the
oldest one. The number of log entries shown on each page may be changed
in the text box. The internal log list is cleared when power is removed from
the Spider, or when you click the Clear button.
NFS Logging Enabled The Spider can write log information to a file on an NFS server. Provide the
name of the server, share, and file in the boxes. The NFS share will be
mounted immediately, and an error message will result if it cannot be found.
