The Consolidated Logs view displays compiled log-related activity in near real-time.

Understand column data

The default view of each report contains a grid with the following columns:

  • Log Name. The specific log in which the individual activity was recorded (e.g., Logger Health, Network Traffic).
  • Component. The individual element item within the specified category generating the activity (e.g., device/monitor name, log entry, service).
  • Severity. Indicates if the activity is being reported as Information, Warning, or Critical.
  • Message. Provides additional details about the specific activity that occurred.
  • Elapsed Time. Reports the amount of time that has passed since the specific activity occurred.

Click the report settings icon to configure specific data to be included in/excluded from the Consolidated Logs report. You can toggle on/off Monitor, Log, Network, System, and Discovery data for display. Additionally, you have the ability to specify which individual data types, activity, and levels of criticality are displayed under each category by enabling the respective check boxes.
