6.4.2.3 Displaying Alert History

Use the LIST ALERTHISTORY command to display the alert history that has occurred on a cell.

Alert history entries are retained for a maximum of 100 days. If the number of alert history entries exceeds 500, then the alert history entries are only retained for 7 days. When stateful alerts are cleared, meaning that the underlying metric, hardware or software condition has returned to normal, then the stateful alert is retained either 100 or 7 days, depending on the number of alert history entries. Stateful alerts that are not cleared are retained, regardless of their age.

Example 6-20 Listing Alert History Attributes

This example shows how to display a detailed list of attributes for alert history entries where the severity attribute is set to critical and the examinedBy attribute has not been set.

CellCLI> LIST ALERTHISTORY WHERE severity = 'critical' AND examinedBy = '' DETAIL
