# Events Table

User Access: All users: view (read only); Administrators: view and clear events.

The Events Table on the System Events screen contains a row for each unique active system event with the following information:

Column | Description
--- | ---
Component | The unique name of the component that has caused this event. Components can be hardware or software. Troubleshooting information is also available for each of these components.
Detail | Displays details for the component.
ID | Contains a unique event ID for each event allowing you to track the event in your external trouble-ticket system and query the log files for all actions related to the event (e-mail, clearing, etc.).
All | Displays the highest severity that this event has ever achieved: informational (green), warning (yellow), critical (red) icons. Click the icon to display details for the event.
Recent | Displays the current severity (informational (green), warning (yellow), critical (red) icons) and a descriptive message. These descriptions may be lengthy, (for example, describing the nominal, warning, critical, and current temperature for a fan) and therefore display in the help panel.
Type | Identifies the event type.
First | Lists the date and time at which the event was initially generated. Only the time displays in the table; help text at the bottom of the window displays the entire date and time.
Last | The date and time at which the event was most recently generated. Only the time displays in the table; help text at the bottom of the window displays the entire date and time.
Count | Lists the number of times the event has occurred. If a new event has the same component and event type as a current, uncleared event, a new event is not created but the count for the current event is incremented and the current severity is updated in the recent column. You can then identify when a condition first started occurring, how often it keeps recurring, and the last time it occurred.
Clear | Clicking this button clears the event. You must manually clear all events. An event cleared from the SM Console or using an SM Command (from the command line) is automatically cleared from the server's cache and any other connected SM Console System Events screen. Only administrator and manager users can clear events.

To reorder events, click the desired column heading by which you wish to order events. For example, to list events by type, click the Type column heading.

Notes

- If an administrator at another console or command line clears an event that is currently displayed, a priority message appears.
