Event Browser
The Event Browser displays a list of events generated by the switches in the fabric
and the QuickTools web applet. Events that are generated by the QuickTools web
applet are not saved on the switch, but can be saved to a file during the
QuickTools session.
Entries in the Event Browser ( Figure 2-1 ) are formatted by severity, time stamp,
source, type, and description. The maximum number of entries allowed in the
Event Browser is 10,000. The maximum number of entries allowed on a switch is
1200. Once the maximum is reached, the event list wraps and the oldest events
are discarded and replaced with the new events. Event entries from the switch,
use the switch time stamp, while event entries generated by the web applet have
a workstation time stamp. You can filter, sort, and export the contents of the Event
Browser to a file. The Event Browser begins recording when enabled and
QuickTools is running.
CAUTION!
Do not reconnect target devices and initiator devices at
this time. Doing so could invalidate the fabric zoning
configuration.
