Network Inventory Administrative Alert Log

In the Logs > Network Inventory > Administrative Alerts section, you can view the list of log records about Network Inventory alerts. By default, two data views are available:

  • All Time - displays all errors and failures that the Network Inventory Administrative Alert Log contains

  • Last 7 days - displays errors and failures reported for the last 7 days

You can switch between views using the View: [View Name] list on the Module menu. You can also customize the default views using the standard Customize View window and save your customizations as your own custom views that will display the log data exactly as you need.

NOTE: You can also open the Alert log from the Network Inventory application by clicking Tools > Alert Log. In this case, you can only view and refresh the data. If you need to clear the log, open the Alert Log from the Settings App.

By default, each entry in the list contains Closedstatistics about a particular log record. The overall statistics of all sessions are shown in the footer.

  • Server Name - the Automation Server instance generated the log record.

  • Log Date - the date and time when the record was logged.

  • Alert Name - the alert name.

  • Subject - the system event that logged the record.

  • NOTE: By default, there are some other fields that are not included in the grid view for log records. To show their columns in the Alert Log grid, open the standard Customize View window and add these fields to the grid.
