Event logs capture system events. This information includes:

  • Event type

  • Date and time when the event occurred

  • Source of the event

  • Category of the event

  • Event ID

  • User who logged on when the event occurred

  • Computer on which the event occurred

You can use the filters available in the HPE StoreEasy management console UI to limit the logs which are collected for transfer.

Filters can be applied on the basis of event severity levels in the system:
