Events and Event Logs
Introduction
When an enabled, defined event occurs in the HMX Manager, it is saved in the event log. You can
display the event log content or view details about an individual event log entry. If you wish, you
can also export event logs to Microsoft Excel for further analysis.
It is also possible to change the event log’s retention period and export the event log’s content.
NOTE: It is not possible to manually delete event logs. The Management Appliance automatically deletes logs
which have expired.
Event Severity and Categories
Events are classified by severity and category.
