The History tab in the System Administration View provides an historical list of
informational, warning, and error items (see Figure 6-4). Each row in the tab corresponds to
an item. The items are date and time stamped, with the most recent item appearing at the
top of the list. The time zone configured for the array appears in parentheses on the tab
label; in Figure 6-4, the array is configured for Pacific Daylight Time (PDT). The icon in the
left column indicates the severity of the item (Information, Warning or Error). When you
select an item, detailed information about the item appears on the right side of the tab.
