Event Log

The Event Log component is intended for viewing and managing server events in the real-time mode. It also provides access to event history and allows to acknowledge events.

To allow using Event Filters, Iotellect Client creates one Event Log component per every server connection when it is active (established). Event Log component is automatically closed when connection to the corresponding server is broken.

Event Log window consist of two main parts: Current Events and Event History:

Both parts have a toolbar that helps to access frequently used functions. In the left part of both toolbars the is a drop down box that allows to select an Event Filter. Initially, these the selected filter is <Empty Filter> what means that no events are shown.

In some cases Event Log component shows a predefined set of event types. In this case list of Event Filters and related buttons ("Reactivate Filter", "Configure Filter") are not available.

Columns of event tables can be resized and reordered. To resize a column click on its margin and drag the mouse to left or right. To change column order, drag column header and drop it to a new location. Column size and order is applied to the current filter only. It is stored in the workspace and reused when Iotellect Client is restarted.

It is also possible to sort events. To enable sorting, click on the column header. Subsequent clicks will change sorting order for this column between ascending and descending.

Double-clicking the separator between headers of two columns will auto-fit the left-hand's column width (i.e, resize it to fit everything in it).

It is important to note that sorting of event history is performed on the server, so it may take considerable time.

Double clicking on any event opens Data Table associated with it in a Data Table Editor.

Event Log uses Date Pattern, Time Pattern and Timezone settings specified in User Account Properties to properly convert and render different timestamps. All date/time values are shown in active user's timezone.

Showing of event log filters working with big amount of data can cause the Iotellect Client high memory utilization.

Event Level column uses a set of icons to indicate level of events:
