Understanding the Problem Log Display

There are nine types of problems listed in the Problem
Log. Each type of problem has an icon associated with it.
For example, a stethoscope

is used to identify health-

related problems. As you become more familiar with using
the log, you will learn which icon is associated with a
particular type of problem.

Problems are also categorized by severity. A single
exclamation mark (

)

indicates a low level of severity,

while two (

) and three (

) exclamation marks indicate

a moderate and high level of severity, respectively.

Each problem listed has a unique problem ID and a short
description of the problem that was found.

Table 6-1 lists the types of problems you can see and their
associated icons.
