## Alert Log

Alerts are actionable events and, therefore, the Alert Log will be much smaller than the Event Log. The intent of this log is not to view the content of the Alert, but rather to view the list of Alert types that have been generated. You can obtain the actual content by scanning through the appropriate message logs or through the email that was sent for each notification.

### Customizing an Alert Log

1. From the Monitor Log menu, select Alert Log.

Alerts are actionable events. The Alert log is considerably shorter than the Event Log.

2. Customize the alert log report by using any of the information in Alert Log Options table.
3. Click Search Log to produce a customized Alert Log.

The corresponding alert log window is displayed.
