Event Details Workspace
The Enterprise Status workspace (default for the Enterprise Navigator item) includes the Situation Event Console and My Acknowledged Events views, each of which has links to the Event Details workspace. The Event Details workspace provides detailed information about the event row and has four views.
- Selected Event
- The Selected Event view provides reference information about the event. You can
click the
link indicator to see the other two Event Details
workspaces, then select one to open it. - Similar Events by...
- This is the view that distinguishes each type of Event Details workspace. The
events will be similar by situation name, by source, or by resource. This view
enables you to identify event patterns to help diagnose the root cause, whether
by condition, by managed system or by the specific resource being
monitored.
Similar Events by Situation Name
This view lists all the events for the same situation. Such events would occur when the situation is true on more than one managed system or the situation is true on the same managed system more than once (a display item was defined in the Advanced Situation options window).
Similar Events by Source
This view list all the events from the same managed system as the event you are viewing.
Similar Events by Resource
This view displays all the events for situations that were defined with the same attribute group as the one used for this situation.
- Event Notes
- The Event Notesdisplays any notes and files that have been applied to the event
acknowledgement. You can access any attached file by clicking the Attachment
hypertext link. The file is launched in your default browser or in the default
viewer configured for the file's MIME type. You can print the notes for an event
by clicking
Print. If you want to update the notes for an event, right-click the
event in the Selected Event view and click 
Event Notes. Click
to view the updates. - Event Tools
- The Event Tools browser view provides links to additional resources for managing events. There are downloadable tools, some of which can be used to troubleshoot any problems you have with events. For example, this view provides a link to the Log and Trace Analyzer, which you can use as part of an autonomic event management solution. This view also provides a link to the IBM Integrated Service Management Library (http://www.ibm.com/software/brandcatalog/ismlibrary) website, from where you can access additional problem determination information and tools.
