The Event logging function logs all events that occur und displays the logged events under Logging -> Event logging in the All events tab. To provide a better overview, the recent events that you have not yet seen are also displayed in the Current events overview. The Dashboard displays a summary of this tab in the Events tile.
If you use the Acknowledge current events button to remove the currently displayed events from the Current events table, the Events tile reflects this change. The acknowledged events are only displayed in the All events tab.
The currently possible events with messages are listed in the online help of the SE Manager under "General information".
With the Alarm management you can configure automatic SNMP trap or email messages for events with certain weights and/or from certain components; this enables you to recognize important events like error situations earlier and to react quickly if necessary, even in large SE server configurations.
The SE Manager displays the alarm management configuration in the Logging -> Alarm management menu.
Security-relevant actions
Since a message can mean that sensitive data are sent to the outside, you should always thoroughly check the specified address when configuring a new SNMP trap or email receiver. Use the Test function to send a test trap or test email to the new receiver to see whether the message is sent to the correct receiver.
