    In the Alerts section, the most recent alerts are listed.
  2. Optional: Filter the log entries that are displayed.

    2. Click the arrow to the left of the filter text field.
    3. From the list of names in the Filter On box, select one or more column names.
    4. Click OK. The log entries are filtered according to your filter criteria.

      For example, if you typed *fail and selected the Message Text column name, all entries with fail in the message text are displayed.

      More strings are matched when you use wildcards in the filter text. An asterisk replaces several characters. A question mark replaces one character. If you use an asterisk or wildcard in the filter text, the blank space beyond the end of your filter text matches any text.

What to do next

If you need to further investigate a client, you can view the health, deployment, and storage data for that client in the Clients task. In the Clients task, you can also view the activity log of a client or view the current configuration of a client.

If you determine that some action is needed, you can deploy software updates, change the configuration of a client, or send a script to a client in the Clients task.
