Fault Log Entries

The fault log records hardware and software faults. This is a useful reference when troubleshooting hardware failure, as timestamps are available for these hardware fault events.

The following are example fault log entries as they would appear in the BUI:

These faults generate alert log entries that use the alert reporting settings (such as sending email), if configured. Faults that require administrator attention appear in Problems. For more information, see Working with Problems.
