Monitor events by using operating system tools

If you install Tivoli® Storage Manager Version 7.1.3 on a Linux operating system, you can configure the server to send event messages to the system error log. In this way, you can monitor events by using operating system tools.

The following information is recorded in the system error log:
  • The date and time that the Linux system log received the event
  • The category of the event
  • The event number
  • The user security identifier
  • The name of the computer that logged the event
