Command Log

Each event displays with Severity, Date and Time, User, and Description log fields. Clicking a column heading sorts by the column or changes the sort direction of the column.

You can see who has logged in, and with what privilege level. The command log tracks logins, logouts, systems management software initialization, shutdowns initiated by systems management software, and other actions such as setting values and alert actions. The command log also records the last time the log was cleared.

Severity Indicates whether the event type is Normal/OK, Warning/Noncritical, or Critical/Nonrecoverable.
Date and Time Displays the day, month, date, time (hours, minutes, and seconds), and year of the event.
User Displays the names of users logged in to Server Administrator.
Description Displays a brief statement of what happened and the components involved. The power threshold value (in watts) may differ from the set value. For example, if you set the warning threshold to 1000 watts, this value is stored as 994 watts.
