Filtering the Event Browser Filtering the Event Browser enables you to display only those events that are of interest based on the event severity, timestamp, source, type, and description. To filter the Event Browser, open the Filter menu and select Filter Entries. This command opens the Filter Events dialog shown in Figure 6. The Event Browser displays those events that meet all of the criteria in the Filter Events dialog. If the filtering criteria is cleared or changed, then all the events that were previously hidden that satisfy the new criteria will be shown. You can filter the event browser in the following ways: • Severity—select one or more of the corresponding options to display alarm events, critical events, warning events, or informative events. • Date/Time—select one or both of the From: and To: options. Enter the bounding timestamps (MM/DD/YY HH:MM AA) to display only those events that fall within those times. ("AA" indicates AM or PM.) The current year (YY) can be entered as either two or four digits. For example, 12/12/11 will be interpreted December 12, 2011. • Text—select one or more of the corresponding options and enter a text string (case sensitive) for event source, type, and description. The Event Browser displays only those events that satisfy all of the search specifications for the Source, Type, and Description text. Figure 6. Filter Events dialog Sorting the Event Browser Sorting the Event Browser enables you to display the events in alphanumeric order based on the event severity, timestamp, source, type, or description. Initially, the Event Browser is sorted in ascending order by timestamp. To sort the Event Browser, click the Severity, Timestamp, Source, Type, or Description column buttons. You can also open the Sort menu and select By Severity, By Timestamp, By Source, By Type, or By Description. Successive sort operations of the same type alternate between ascending and descending order. 18 IBM Flex System FC3171 8 Gb SAN Switch QuickTools User’s Guide
Saving the Event Browser to a file You can save the displayed Event Browser entries to a file. Filtering affects the save operation, because only displayed events are saved. To save the Event Browser to a file, do the following: 1. Filter and sort the Event Browser to obtain the desired display. 2. Open the File menu and select Save As. 3. Select a folder and enter a file name in which to save the event log, and then click the Save button. The file can be saved in XML, CSV, or text format. XML files can be opened with an internet browser or text editor. CSV files can be opened with most spreadsheet applications. Device information and nicknames Devices data window Devices are hosts and storage targets connected to the switch. A nickname is a user-definable, meaningful name that can be used in place of the World Wide Name. This sub-section describes how to view and manage device information and nicknames. • Devices data window • Displaying detailed device information • Managing device port nicknames The Devices data window, shown in Figure 7, displays information about devices connected to the switch. To display the Devices data window, click the Devices tab below the data window. Figure 7. Devices data window Chapter 3. Managing fabrics 19
