Working with Events

Events occur when measurements or data exceed specific thresholds or when
certain conditions are present or arise. Three event types are available through
IntelliServe:

• Monitor-level (MLI) events sent from the monitor to IntelliServe

(example: High Depth Level Exceeded)

• Computer-level (CLI) events generated by IntelliServe (example: Flow

Imbalance in the Network)

• System-related events (example: Invalid Password)

When IntelliServe generates an event, an entry is added to the Event Log.
The Event Log contains an historical summary of all system events, including
the location name, event type, date, time, and description of the event. Each
time you display the Event Log, it displays the events that have occurred
within the past 24 hours.

Using the Event Log, you can query and sort the system database. You also
can view details related to each event and add additional information as
comments.

Note: You must have the View Event Log permission to display and
query the Event Log.

Querying the Event Log

You can retrieve and display specific event information by selecting options
and generating a query from the Query Log. You can select one or more
options from the Query Log depending on the extent (range) of information
you want to retrieve. The results from the query display in the Events table in
the bottom half of the Event Log window.

Query the Event Log for multiple locations simultaneously or query the Event
Log
for an individual location using the following:
