37.2 Monitoring Device Events
When you use Novell
®
ZENworks Linux Management to remotely install applications, you need
feedback on the success and failure of certain events so you can keep your systems working at an
optimal level. With event monitoring, you can track things such as software installation on client
devices, whether or not a device has been refreshed, whether or not sessions were started, and so on.
These messages are logged into a database and the information displayed in the event logs.
37.3 Monitoring Policy Events
ZENworks Linux Management lets you configure operating system settings and select application
settings through the use of policies. By applying a policy to multiple devices, you can ensure that the
devices have the same configuration. The Message Logger tracks problems with setting policies and
displays them in the event logs. The resulting messages alert you to any problems that arise, such as
failed connections and the inability to create schedules.
37.4 Monitoring Bundle Events
ZENworks Linux Management enables you to create bundles and catalogs to distribute RPM
packages to managed devices. In the process of pushing the bundles to managed devices, problems
can arise, such as a bundle failing to install or problems with removing a bundle. These events are
logged in the event log so you can address them.
37.5 Using the Hot List
When a device, policy, or bundle has been identified as having a critical or warning event (non-
system) that has not been acknowledged or cleared, it is displayed in the Hot List. You can use this
list as a summary of problems that need attention. Events on the Hot List are ordered by severity:
first are those devices, policies, or bundles with critical events, then those with warning events.
Those with the most problems are listed first. With the Hot List, you can see at a glance which
device, policy, or bundle needs the most attention.
