Master Log

The Master Log, which displays in the lower area of the main window, lists the events and alerts
that have occurred on the SAN. If you do not see the Master Log, select View > Show Panels >
All Panels or press F5.

The default order of the Master Log columns is ‘Severity’, ‘Acknowledged’, ‘Last Event Server Time’,
and ‘Description’. Which columns are displayed and in what order can be controlled through the
“Customize Columns” dialog, as described in “

” and in “

Changing the order of

columns

”. You can sort the Master Log by clicking a column heading. By default, the Master Log is

sorted by the Last Event Server Time column. To filter information in the Master Log, refer to
